PINOT NOIR CRANBERRY SAUCE?!

Yep. And its a Thanksgiving game-changer.

Heres my quick recipe:

1) 12 oz fresh cranberries
2) 1 cup sugar (or 3/4 cup if you like it more tart)
3) 1/2 cup McCarter Cellars Pinot Noir
4) Zest + juice of 1 orange
5) Pinch of cinnamon + a tiny pinch of clove and cayenne pepper.

Simmer until it pops and thickens. Cool, then serve.

Pair it with a glass of Pinot Noir at the table and youll see why Im obsessed.

Want the spicy version or the no-sugar version? Comment CRANBERRY and Ill drop it.

ATTENTION Thanksgiving planners! 🍷🦃

If you’re building the w**e lineup early, here’s my go-to trio for a table full of flavors:

• McCarter Cellars Pinot Noir: turkey, herbs, mushrooms, gravy, cranberry… it plays nice with ALL of it.
• Pink•ish Rosé of Pinot Noir: perfect for apps, charcuterie, and that first “welcome” pour.
• Gewürztraminer: the secret weapon for spicy sides + sweet bites (and it’s unreal with anything aromatic).

Stock up now so you’re not scrambling the week of.
