It is also one of the most pairing-friendly main courses in wine. The bird itself is mild, the cooking method varies enormously (roast, smoked, deep-fried, brined), and the side dishes range from sweet (cranberry sauce, sweet potato) to savoury (stuffing, gravy) to earthy (Brussels sprouts, mushroom). A turkey dinner is essentially a multi-course meal on one plate, and the right wine has to handle the breadth.</p>
