With Thanksgiving right around the corner, we should all take a moment to think about everything that we have to be thankful for and to think about those who may be going through very difficult times, whether health-related, job-related, etc.  Thanksgiving is all about putting things in proper perspective. We wish all of our friends and family a safe, happy and healthy Thanksgiving holiday. Enjoying a bottle (or four) of wine over good conversation with our family over the holidays is just one of the many things Jill and I are especially thankful for. If you can, try to drink local wines and support your local winemakers this holiday season. In these difficult and trying economic times, it’s important for us to support our nation’s economy, and that includes our nation’s winemakers. We’ll be opening some of our favorite bottles of wine we have picked up on our trips to the North Fork and Finger Lakes.

Here are what some writers around the country are recommending as some great value holiday wines to be thankful for:
