Wine Pairings
Turkey burritos
Pair it with: A fruity Pinot Gris.
With a generous mouth feel that coats the tongue in flavours of ripe melon, Golden Delicious apples and Bartlett pears, this almost off-dry West Coast pinot gris really turns on the charm alongside these delicately spiced burritos.
Our pick: Firesteed Pinot Gris, Oregon, $18.
