Barbera often seems to be a hit with friends, it is often easy to find good versions since many of the top Barolo/Barbaresco have a great Barbera also.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Great call!

[@lees5761]

Yes! Barbera is fantastic. Especially for the price!

[@jareddevon6600]

TY for listening to my feedback about more available wine options! Don't change your content though for the normal videos, I think most of us still love the unique finds

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Thanks for watching

[@NatashaBelyishak]

Your videos are always lots of fun and educational!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@justincurrier218]

I was introduced to Tannat when I visited a vineyard in New Hampshire and it was the absolute best tasting wine they offered.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Wow that’s impressive!

[@casperoomen9111]

Absolutely LOVE the Garzon Tannat 2022!! One of the best values I have tasted so far. It has got that deep dark colour and intense smell of dark fruit. On the palate, the wine is big and rich but has that beautifull complex backbone of minerality and acidity.

[@robdielemans9189]

That's interesting! The largest booze shop both physical and online has this one in their catalogue, quite cheap too, 18-ish Euros.

[@nicomeier8098]

I've tasted this too and I also liked it. However, I think I'll stick to Chauteau Montus.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

It’s a wine that punches way past its price point

[@danf321]

Once at Thanksgiving I served a Lambrusco, and everyone loved it. Of course,it was served slightly chilled.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Very good choice, what a food friendly wine!

[@DrinkinItIn]

I love that you used a Coravin on Rose' and the Wente Chardonnay.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

🤭 Me too, especially after finding out the rosé is so good!

[@ryvirk]

Can’t miss with light reds for Thanksgiving! I’ll open up my FLX Riesling after dinner :)

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ha ha ha that is funny

[@scottrodman802]

I’ll have my flex Riesling during thanksgiving dinner

[@ryvirk]

@ why not both!

[@MrJcalvino]

For casual drinkers I think they will like more a sparkling Moscato de D’Asti than Prosecco. Usually more sweet and intense nose yet not complex. Not a single spanish recommendation 😢

[@drmatthewhorkey]

The Rosado was!

[@MWTX75]

Really like your content! Keep doing what you’re doing!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

thank you!

[@craigmetcalfe1749]

Hi Matt! Down Under my family enjoys Sparkling Red (an Aussie classic) with Turkey. Most of the these can be had at a cheap and cheerful price. They may be Sparkling Shiraz or any other variety or blend that is red. Celebrated my birthday last night at a French Restaurant with a bottle of Domaine Theulot Juillot Les Combins Mercurey 1er Cru 2021 followed with a glass of Chateau Ruissac with dessert. Can you do a future review of sticky whites from around the world e.g. Chateau D'quem (France) and Noble One (Australia) et al. Cheers!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

There already are a few but Stay tuned to the channel! Sparkling Shiraz is a very underrated wine style, red sparklers in general too

[@robdielemans9189]

Geeky grape varieties. Going along with the light-ish reds maybe 100% Freisa from Notrhern Italy. And for dessert a Cour-Cheverny Moelleux 100% Romorantin. Anmything else... I might have a bottle of GRK lying around somewhere, great wine to share with beginners because they just have so many flavour profiles, not overly explicit but present. Finished my last bottle of Rara Neagra couple of days ago and that's it from the top of my head.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ohhhh Grk and Rara! Me likey

[@lees5761]

Had family in so we had thanksgiving over the weekend. Started with Sauvignon Blanc, finished with Beekeeper Zin. First time I've had it (Not really a Zin drinker). It was very good.... especially after an hour. Everyone enjoyed it.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Niceee

[@carbonic.mastication]

Great choices. I would add a cru Beaujolais.. or even nouveau, from a select producers.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Good call as well!

[@joe-zp7ge]

tannat is a really excellent grape and a lot of bang for the buck. im going to buy the reserve asap. I hope you do a video on uruguayan wines. they are so under the radar. (didnt know they had a reserve)

[@drmatthewhorkey]

There is one on the channel

[@tombyfuglien]

For chocolate dessert try Moscato d'Astis red couisin Brachetto d`Acqui.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Huge fan of Brachetto here!

[@danielmagg6096]

Wow. I wish I had someone as knowledgeable as you at my retail store...

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ask the employees some questions! You might be surprised

[@danielmagg6096]

@drmatthewhorkey these days in Singapore, not so much, labour crunch is tremendous... anyways, I enjoy your videos a lot! Thanks for these

[@drmatthewhorkey]

ahhhh ic!

[@crrizello5157]

Thanks for the video. I never would have thought of tannat for Thanksgiving, so might give it a try. Visited Stoller last year and enjoyed their White Pinot Noir. Zinfandel goes great with Thanksgiving!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Their white Pinot showed up before in a video

[@paulmassey5938]

Educational and fun too.😊

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Thank you

[@jmwoz3109]

Just purchased the Tannat for my holiday Lechon

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Enjoy it

[@paulmassey5938]

Super review.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Thanks

[@shilam]

Garzon Albariño is awesome

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Yes both the reserve and the single vineyard

[@tonygallo1104]

Thanks for Vid Dr. MH! Btw, what wine shop do you work at….? Other possibilities for red could be Frappato , even Nerello Mascalese.. and a St. Nicolas Bourgueill in the Loire or Blaufrankish in Austria/Germany and lastly, Mencia in northern Spain

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Nice suggestions… for a variety of reasons I do like to keep that private

[@wayfinder105]

Louis Jadot Beaujolais was an excellent choice for my family on the approachable/non-geeky side

[@drmatthewhorkey]

That is a good entry wine for everyone to enjoy

[@FOB2009]

Nice video! I also enjoy those casseroles. Speaking of green, is that a Kermit? Also, no problems with putting the Coravin needle through the foil/wax? Thanks!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Goes right through the foil and… The Hulk

[@marknelson8724]

Of all the bottles I have taken to Thanksgiving, the one that worked the best, and the only one I can remember, was a big ripe soft Aussie Shiraz. Crazy, huh?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Makes a lot of sense!!!

[@samuelsmith4194]

I had a 1996 Jim Barry McCrae Wood Shiraz opened for a pre-Thanksgiving turkey dinner last weekend. It was close to perfect.

[@AlejandroPDX]

Soter Vineyards makes a much cheaper secondary label, Planet Oregon. Same price range as Stoller but I feel there’s more to it than Stollers.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

I’m a big fan of Soter, I’ve never tried their basic line of PO

[@craigavery8213]

I like Chinon, and have recently discovered Crémant de Bourgogne.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Both excellent choices

[@samuelsmith4194]

Great suggestions for average wine drinkers as differentiated from connoisseurs, although I find most American Zin too fruity, too intense and too high in alcohol for turkey, even dark meat with cranberry jelly. I’ll serve a Trentodoc bubbly to start, and then let my guests choose from a dozen wines of all types so they can decide for themselves what pairs best with each dish, whether it’s the green bean casserole, the turkey, the salmon, or later amongst the very different desserts. The wines will all be decanted into simple glass vessels so peeps will be surprised with what they’re drinking and thereby discover new grapes and regions. Thanksgiving is the best holiday for doing this. Another geeky commenter mentioned Romartin, a grape few know but is really quite good with all things turkey. Whites that weren’t mentioned are Kabinett level Riesling, Pinot Gris from Friuli and Gruner Veltliner, perhaps my favorite. We had a pre Thanksgiving dinner last weekend and the favorite red was a Babic from Croatia. Other reds to consider: Cannonau, Gamay, and old Rioja. So many wines, so little time…

[@drmatthewhorkey]

You are right… so many wines so little time.

[@MrCarlyMS]

Fried turkey, Vino Verde and Beaujolais Nouveau. These wines are around ten dollars.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Niceeee!!!

[@alexanderlachmann7292]

I really don't like to bring wines to friends anymore.The last time I did that I thought it would be nice to bring a classified bordeaux and since they did not even own wine glasses I was drinking Chateau d'Issan from a solo cup. And I can attest that most people really don't like these kinds of wines. (saw someone abandon his full solo cup).

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Ohhh and Issan is such a good wine!!! Inexpensive, easy, and cheerful are better ways to go IMO

[@spencergreer526]

What store do you work at and do they ship??

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Not really, I’d like to keep it a little bit private for a variety of reasons although some people have located me

[@freddieslaughter1107]

Why is that wine opener so expensive, is there any thing cheaper?

[@robdielemans9189]

You mean the Coravin? That's not a wine opener, it is tool that exchanges Argon gas for wine.

[@freddieslaughter1107]

@@robdielemans9189 Yes that is what I meant, I think it is a nice t0o have for wine, but way too expensive .

[@robdielemans9189]

@@freddieslaughter1107 I usually have 150 wines at home and when I open expensive ones it's always when others are around and I want to make the moment just a tad more special, also meaning the bottle will be finished. So far I have no need for a Coravin, or to put it in another way, it won't add much to my overall wine experience.

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Coravin makes a less expensive system called the pivot too

[@ghettobougieahjoomab8663]

Need to try SB from N. Italy. I noticed it from the previous video... did you get something removed on your cheek?

[@drmatthewhorkey]

I had shingles on the left side of my face
