Tropical Pairings for Thanksgiving: Celebrate with Schnebly Wines

Thanksgiving is a time for family, good food, and the perfect glass of wine. And while Schnebly Redland’s Winery will be closed on Thanksgiving Day to allow our team to celebrate with their loved ones, we want to make sure your table is filled with something truly special — our tropical wines.

From crisp and fruity to rich and dessert-sweet, Schnebly wines bring the taste of South Florida sunshine to your Thanksgiving feast. Here’s your guide to pairing our handcrafted fruit wines with your favorite holiday dishes.

A Tropical Twist on Thanksgiving Tradition

While most tables will feature the classics — turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie — you can make yours unforgettable with a little tropical flair.

Schnebly’s tropical fruit wines are made from locally grown fruits like mango, guava, lychee, and passion fruit. Each bottle captures the essence of Florida’s harvest season in a way that’s both unexpected and delicious.

This year, skip the heavy reds and oaky whites. Instead, serve wines that sparkle with sunshine and pair beautifully with your Thanksgiving favorites.

✨ Pro tip: Chill before serving — it’s refreshing and light enough to enjoy through every course.
