Josh, Marie and Dad enjoy Thanksgiving food with their different wines to pair. At the end each have a cocktail as well. It was a fun time!
For Josh's wine he brings the Brut Rose Reserve from Loimer. Dad couldn't find that Rose so he brought a can of Underwood Brut Rose'. Marie couldn't find it either so she has Le Grand Noir Brut Sparkling Rose' for her wine. For Josh's food he has thick sliced oven roasted turkey from the deli; layered cheese leek organon; fruit cup size sausage dressing. He also had fresh cranberries cooked down with white and brown sugar, orange peel and whole orange juice, with a splash of balsamic vinegar. Josh had a strawberry cream cheese cake in honor of his upcoming birthday paired with a straight pour of Probitas blended White Rum from Barbados.
Dad has for his food; stove top stuffing enhanced with special herbs; whole cranberry sauce with walnuts and orange peal; he also has a smoked sweet potato with a maple syrup compound butter. For his wine he brings Decoy 2021 Merlot. Marie had the Decoy 2019 Merlot. Josh couldn't find it so he had a 2014 Sent DeYoung Gran Cru from LaGrande instead. Dad's desert was an Juicy Apple Bourbon cocktail paired with an caramel apple blossom.
Marie's wine is Imagery's Cabernet Sauvignon. Dad couldn't find this wine either so he bought a four pack of Sutter Home Cabernet Sauvignon. Josh couldn't either so he has Chateau de Grandeur French red. Marie's food consisted of; frozen cranberries cooked down with sugar with orange and lemon zest; traditional sage stove top dressing; sweet potato with home grown rosemary thyme and sage. Marie had an Apple Cocktail. It uses Josephine's Montana Rye, Chrystal Ridge Apple pie moonshine from Hot Springs Arkansas, and Shmallow Hotel Tango Bourbon from Indiana. That makes it a little bit of all of us!
