FeedPerfect Pairings
Kathryn Drury Wagner
With the holidays upon us, you’ll be joining with family and friends for some festive meals. But which wine goes with stuffing? To find out, we consulted several local wine shops, as well as a new book from Cooking Light columnist Karen MacNeil, called Wine, Food & Friends (Oxmoor House, $24.95). Here, a few ways to pair wine with Island favorites.
