Here in Denmark, the Christmas food is extremely fatty, salty and sweet. It is usually duck or roasted pork with pickled red cabbage, browned potatoes and heavy fat sauce. To pair with this, the common choices are Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Amarone, Barolo or Priorat. I often suggest my customers that go with duck and lighter side dishes to go with blanc de blancs champagnes like Charles Heidsieck, Les Mesnil, Ruinart or Pol Roger. The fatty duck and blanc de blancs goes surprisingly well together.
That sounds perfect! All the reds you quoted sound perfect with the food you describe, big and potent! We love our duck as well in the South of France, Champagne with it, why not? Everything works with Champagne ;) Cheers!
Interesting, well to start a Champagne and or Gruner Veltliner with the anti- pasta course. And next, because it will only be Pasta(Ravioli) most likely a Chianti Classico and or a Brunello. And to finish, an Inniskillin Cab Franc Icewine. And a mix of whatever anyone else would like.. And as always: Enjoy the sunshine held together by water🍷 Happy holidays to all🎄
Uuuh, do I love a good Gruner Veltliner, so rich and oily yet refined. We don't get enough of it in France, hard to find here :( Sangiovese with ravioli sounds perfect of course. And what a treat with the ice wine, and a Cab Franc one at that. Man, you're a tasteful connoisseur! Bon appetit 😋🍾
Loire chenin blanc this year, I'm more a fan of whites with body than light reds, so will probably drink that with my turkey, but have a Bordeaux for the red drinkers or the next day!
Sounds delicious cru Beaujolais are so good. Another wine I have found that goes well with foul, can be an Orange wine. Such as; Tre Monti Vitalba Albana In Anfora or Foradori Fuoripista Pinot Grigio. At least in my opinion. Happy holidays

I will be enjoying the Chinon from the French Collection, and some Lustau Pedro Ximinez for dessert.
Yum, that sounds lovely 😋🍾 I said 'Amontillado' sherry in my vid, but I'm with you on the PX on dessert. Cheers! 👍👍🥂🥂
I’ll usually open something special. I love a Syrah with lamb, or a Burgundian Pinot noir with turkey.
Yum Andrew! Cheers 🥂🥂

I'm going to try a Fleurie with roast turkey.

@@LeRoy-h4n Yes, Beaujolais is great with Turkey, and Fleurie is a characterful one, good choice. Happy Christmas celebrations!
We are going off the beaten path. We are having a homemade, dry, cranberry wine with ham and shrimp.
Wow Joh, that's unusual, did you make the cranberry wine? No 'grape juice' wine at all?
@ yes, my wife and I made it. We may also have some Red Blend after that is gone. Probably Napa Valley
