The sparkling wine is a blend of mostly Muscat and some Clairette. With its slightly sweet taste, consider pouring a glass of this sparkling wine as Thanksgiving Day guests arrive. The straw colored wine has an aroma of orange blossoms and honeysuckle. There is orange and lemon on the taste. The finish is cleansing.<\/p>\n<p>In America, Thanksgiving Day foods pose many challenges to any wine. I was thinking of what the Clairette de die Cuv\u00e9e Imp\u00e9riale would pair well with. Kathy\u2019s mother\u2019s cranberry relish comes to mind.<\/p>\n<p>Mom Linck would add orange juice and orange peel to the cranberries for Thanksgiving Day dinner. She would also sweeten the cranberry relish. Put this relish on a piece of turkey and pair with the Clairette de die Cuv\u00e9e Imp\u00e9riale for a wonderful explosion of food and wine. Because it is a sparkling wine, your palate will be cleansed and ready for the next course. We tend to eat early on Thanksgiving Day. By evening we\u2019re looking for a snack. A fresh baked roll, turkey and cranberry-orange relish would pair nicely with the\u00a0 Clairette de die Cuv\u00e9e Imp\u00e9riale.<\/p>\n<p>Clairette de die Cuv\u00e9e Imp\u00e9riale is produced by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jaillance-sofresh.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jaillance<\/a>.
