If there’s one thing we’re thankful for this Thanksgiving, it’s wine.

That’s why we asked ABC Fine Wine & Spirits (the wine people) what bottles we should have on our Turkey Day table this year. It’s no easy task finding wines that can stand up to all the season’s flavors, but ABC’s wine experts have shared their picks for the most delicious wines to serve your guests this Thanksgiving. The best part? They’re all under $15.

Bella Notte Prosecco

ABC’s first pick is Bella Notte Prosecco from Italy. This crisp, dry sparkling wine is a wonderful choice to welcome your guests. Serve it as an aperitif before dinner or pair it effortlessly with any Thanksgiving dish. Bella Notte’s ripe wild apple flavor is delightful and well-balanced with a dry effervescence. This wine is a smart option for fussy drinkers or a table featuring a diverse spread of flavors!

Bleu de Mer Rosé

Bleu de Mer is a great pour for Thanksgiving appetizers, as a palate cleanser between courses or to simply enjoy while waiting for dinner to be ready. This French rosé is made from a blend of grenache and cinsault grapes and expresses as a light and fruity wine with notes of red berries, citrus, watermelon and tart cherry.

Shannon Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon

Shannon Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied red with notes of black currant and plum that delivers a smooth finish. This one will please even those guests at your table who don't usually enjoy red wines. Its lushness also makes it a wonderful match for your rich gravy and buttery turkey. 16

Pound Cake Chardonnay

Pound Cake Chardonnay is rich, creamy and delicious and will bring out the best of roasted turkey while not overpowering the delicate meat. This buttery white wine is aged in oak barrels, which gives it a rich texture that dances with turkey beautifully.

Suvali Pinot Noir

An approachable, table-friendly red is a must on your kitchen counter for the holidays. Both the price point and the flavor make this wine an attractive choice. Suvali’s mouthwatering cherry and coriander notes will sip nicely with cranberry sauce and other seasonal delights.

Giorgi Costarosa Bianco

Of course, the best is saved for last: wine and dessert! This Costarosa Bianco will be the perfect end to your celebrations. This wine is a frizzante which is semi-sparkling and lightly sweet. It’s not heavy, so you can fill your final plate with all the pies and puddings you’ve been waiting for all year for while raising a final Thanksgiving toast.
