A good Zinfandel actually works well with turkey. Surprisingly some red wines go better with this meal since it is a richer meal than normal poultry. But if prefer a white, I'd suggest a Reisling

Pinot Noir. Or a Blanc de Noir. A full bodied red will overpower the turkey. Depending on the sauce you use then fat bastard shiraz might work to. Spicy tones and lots of red berries.

Try a soft, fruity Zinfandel it's a great red wine (NOT WHITE ZINFANDEL) or try Badger Mountain Vineyard Organic Rose' of Cabernet. It's a chilled light red made from 100% Cabernet Franc. It has a lot of stawberry on the nose, and a bit of pomegranite, and grapefruit in the finish

Avoid heavy red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon. You want something lighter, like a Syrah, Merlot or Pinot Noir.

I am in the restaurant business. Our very best selling red wine is Australian Yellow Tail Shiraz. It goes with just about anything. People love the oaky flavor.

--it is as close to a white wine as red wine can get. You don't really want a red wine with turkey.

Go find a good Australian red. A shiraz or cab. sav, varietal would go down nicely. Make sure you decant and allow to breathe, at least 2hrs., before serving.
