Alder caves into pressure and gives his recommendations for good Thanksgiving wines -- Champagne tops his list. Others think Beaujolais nouveau and the wine panel from the New York Times has some ideas.

Oh, and every vendor at every wine tasting I have been to over the last month has told me how well their wines go with Thanksgiving dinner.

My tip? Drink what you like. No wine is going to match everything on the Thanksgiving table, so do a Billy Joel and grab a bottle of red, a bottle of white. I would recommend a Sauvignon Blanc and a Cabernet Franc -- but you all probably knew that :).
