| What's your favorite grocery store wine for the occasion? Yes I should go to an actual wine store but not possible this year and I wouldn't know what brands to buy anyway. |

| How much do you want to spend? |

| Trader Joe's has tons of great, affordable wines, and their wine department usually has knowledgeable and non-snooty staff. |

Don’t come for me but I love Bota boxed wine.
I like that it’s a collapsible interior bag and has a good dispensing spout. I think it taste great. |

| Pinot Noir is good with turkey. |

OP here. $15-$20? But can spend a little more if it's worth it. |

| Pinot noir is good for a light red accompaniment, and Chardonnay is a solid white option. Those varietals are available at a range of price points to suit pretty much any budget. |

Sauvignon Blanc. New Zealand ones are decent.
Or just go with sparkling. It goes with everything. |

| I've been into Pinot Gris from Oregon this year. That would be nice for Thanksgiving. I've gotten decent bottles at Whole Foods and Harris Teeter. |

Yes to Pinot Noir. Chardonnay is not a good option. For white, agree with others on Sauv Blanc, Pinot Grigio, or sparkling. |

Is that for just one bottle, or three or four? You can get at least three nice bottles of wine for that price at Trader Joe’s. Very drinkable wines! |
