Four November Dishes Perfectly Paired with LaBelle Wines
As the leaves fall and the weather cools down, we look forward to settling in at home and gathering with our loved ones. November is filled with cozy flavors, festive gatherings, and—at LaBelle Winery—Cranberry Wine Month!
It’s the perfect time to celebrate seasonal dishes and the wines that bring them to life. If you’re hosting a gathering at home or simply just looking to enjoy delicious dishes paired with wine, these four food and LaBelle wine pairings highlight the best of November flavors and capture the essence of the season:
PAIRING #1: Cranberry Sauce & LaBelle Cranberry Riesling
Cranberry sauce is a Thanksgiving classic, delivering a perfect balance of tartness and sweetness. Our LaBelle Cranberry Riesling elevates this beloved side dish with bright acidity and a naturally fruit-forward profile. Together, they create a vibrant, refreshing pairing that enhances the flavors of season.

No November table is complete without beautifully roasted turkey, and our LaBelle Cranberry Wine is the perfect companion! Crisp, slightly sweet, and beautifully aromatic, our award-winning Cranberry wine complements the savory richness of turkey without overpowering it. This perfect pairing brings a festive twist to your holiday meals and pays homage to LaBelle Winery’s Cranberry Wine Month!
Quick Tip: We recommend using The Winemaker’s Kitchen Brine Seasoning Blend for your Roasted Turkey!
PAIRING #3: Pumpkin Pie & LaBelle Chardonnay
A slice of pumpkin pie is a must-have dessert in November. LaBelle Winery’s Chardonnay is the perfect companion – offering notes of toasted oak that mirror the pumpkin pie’s warm spices. Our Chardonnay’s balanced acidity keeps the pairing light and bright, while its smooth texture complements every bite. Together, they create a comforting and classic pairing!
Quick Tip: We recommend incorporating The Winemaker’s Autumn Pumpkin Pie Spice Blend into your Pumpkin Pie recipe!
PAIRING #4: Mashed Potatoes with gravy & LaBelle Riesling
Silky mashed potatoes and savory gravy calls for a wine that can cut through richness of this popular side dish. LaBelle Riesling does just that! With a crisp, clean finish and delicate hint of sweetness, LaBelle Winery’s Riesling wine enhances the creaminess of the dish, while balancing the savory flavors beautifully.
