Thanksgiving dinner rarely stays in neat little courses. Someone’s passing the stuffing while someone else reaches for cranberry sauce, and your plate ends up with a bit of everything. The wine doesn’t need to match every bite perfectly. It just needs to earn its place at a busy table.

For Thanksgiving 2026, we’re keeping the shopping list simple: bubbles to welcome guests, a white to pour with dinner, and a red for those who prefer one. Each of these three bottles comes in under $20, so you can spend less time puzzling over pairings and more time enjoying the company.

Your Thanksgiving Wine Lineup: Three Bottles Under $20

Welcome Guests with Natale Verga Prosecco

  
There is no better way to start a Holiday Celebration than with Bubbles! Pour the first glasses while the oven’s still working. Your guests will welcome the treat and after all the work you've put into dinner, you've earned it! Natale Verga Prosecco brings pear and green apple notes, lemony and floral aromas, and a touch of almond. Its dry style makes it a lively start to the gathering, whether you’re putting out appetizers or simply catching up around the kitchen counter. And with these prices, you won't mind pouring more throughout the dinner!

Give White-Wine Fans Vouvray Voltaire ($15.99)

If your Thanksgiving plate leans toward turkey, sweet potatoes, and a little cranberry sauce, make room for this Vouvray.  Vouvray Voltaire is a wine that Haskell's has been stocking for 50 years. Coming from the Loire Valley, this wine is made with 100% Chenin Blanc, which provides a white-fruit aroma. The minerality comes from the soils of the Vouvray districts terrier. The balance comes from the winemakers 60 years of experience. It’s a good choice for the guest who wants fruit in their glass without giving up freshness.

Set Out Pra Vinera Reserve Pinot Noir ($15.99)

  
For the red-wine drinkers, reach for a Pinot Noir that won’t demand the whole plate’s attention. Pra Vinera Reserve Pinot Noir is the perfect wine for a Turkey dinner. It provides delicious fruity characteristics that will accompany the meal, and not overpower it! It offers ripe red-berry flavors, soft spice, and a hint of vanilla in a medium-bodied wine with balanced acidity and ripe tannins. Try it with turkey and savory stuffing, then let everyone find their own favorite bite to go with it.

A Seasonal Extra: 2026 Beaujolais Nouveau ($16.99)

  
Bring a taste of this year's harvest to your Thanksgiving table with Beaujolais Nouveau. Made to be enjoyed young, this light, fruity wine spends just a few weeks aging before it's ready to pour. And there's a bit of folklore to share with your guests: Drinking Beaujolais Nouveau in the year it's made is said to bring good luck in the year ahead! So whether you're superstitious or simply curious about the new vintage, raise glass to good company and good fortune!

There’s no need to open everything at once. Start with the bubbles, put the white and red on the dinner table, and let guests choose their pour. When dessert arrives, we have one more idea that takes the evening beyond wine....

Coffee, with a little extra

Once the turkey is carved and the wine glasses are winding down, it's time to put on the coffee. Jeffers Creek Bourbon Cream brings something extra to that after-dinner cup: a creamy bourbon liqueur with notes of vanilla, butterscotch, toasted oak, and baking spice. Stir a splash into hot coffee, adding more to taste, or pour it over ice and sip it alongsidw dessert. It's a simple way to change things up without adding another task to your Thanksgiving prep.
