Deck the Green: The holidays uncorked

Holiday gatherings have long been synonymous with a hefty serving size of whatever is on the menu, and in this case, that’s a whole lot of vino.

Though it’s not time to pop the cork on your champagne bottle just yet, it’s never too early to pour a stellar glass of wine and peruse a mental image of this year’s choice pairings.
