Thanksgiving is truly an American holiday, and when deciding what wine to choose for the turkey dinner, you can't go wrong with a local wine pairing. Lynfred Winery, located in the Chicago northwest suburb of Roselle, takes the guessing out of Thanksgiving wine choices by creating wine packages perfect for any celebration.

THANKSGIVING CLASSICS

Oktoberfest $12

Vin de City Red $11

Cranberry $14

You can't beat this economical selection of wines for your Thanksgiving dinner. Oktoberfest is a sweet Gewurztraminer. Vin de City red is a dry red blend, deliberately crafted to compliment a broad range of foods. Cranberry Wine is sweet, tart & fruity - a must have with turkey & stuffing.

AN ELEGANT AFFAIR

Chardonnay Reserve 2013 $30

Petite Syrah Reserve 2012 $35

Sparkling Brut $25

Ice Wine 2013 $35

Perfect for your Thanksgiving table! Start the party off right with a glass (or two) of our Sparkling Brut wine. The Reserve Chardonnay is rich with vanilla and pineapple notes - the perfect accompaniment to those delicious sweet potatoes. Our Reserve Petite Syrah with notes of dried plums and black pepper will be a gorgeous pairing with the entire meal, while our 2013 Ice Wine rounds out the entire meal when paired with pumpkin or sweet potato pie.

LYNFRED LOVERS

Riesling 2013 $15.00

Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2012 $35.00

Ruby Reserve $35

Our Lyn-friends have amazing palates and they know a good wine when they see one. The 2012 Riesling is not too sweet, not too dry, and every Lyn-friend knows that Riesling is a perfect pairing with Thanksgiving turkey. The stunning and elegant Reserve Cabernet will be the star of your dinner. Private barrel tastings in the Lynfred cellar often end with our luxuriously rich, Ruby Reserve, port-style wine made with Sangiovese and your holiday can end in true Lynfred style.
