The holiday season is basically one long game of calendar Tetris, except every event comes with a group chat that has 11 unsaved numbers texting some variation of “what should we bring?” all to be met with the same answer: wine. Friendsgiving? Wine. Gift swap? Wine. Dinner at your friend’s parents’ house? Suddenly, the bottle you grab off the shelf feels like a much bigger decision than it needs to be.<\/p>\n
The good news is you don’t need to become a sommelier or end up deep in a Reddit thread to pick a great bottle. Whether you\u2019re hosting a crowd or looking for a hostess gift that says, \u201cI\u2019m thoughtful and definitely have my life together,\u201d La Crema\u2019s Friends & Family Sale (November 5\u201324) comes with an exclusive deal for Everygirl readers<\/a>: up to 40% off, plus free ground shipping on orders of $125+.<\/strong> It\u2019s La Crema\u2019s biggest sale of the year, and it won\u2019t be back again this year. Just shop through our links to unlock the savings. Here\u2019s exactly what wine to buy for every holiday plan on your calendar.<\/p>\n Friendsgiving menus are famously unpredictable. One person is making a turkey from scratch, another is bringing a casserole they found on TikTok, and someone else has announced they’re bringing a salad that will inevitably be untouched. You need a wine that can hang with all of it.<\/p>\n So, enter Pinot Noir. It’s light enough to complement most traditional holiday dishes without overpowering everything on the table, making it an easy crowd-pleaser when you’re feeding a group with so many different food preferences. And since you’re hosting, you’ll probably want more than one bottle (running out of wine before the pie comes out is a horror no one should face). La Crema has several Pinot Noir options worth considering<\/a>, whether you’re looking for an everyday crowd-pleaser or something a little more special.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Hosting Season Is Here: 16 Fall Party Ideas to Try This Season<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n price: price: price: price: price: price: Gift swaps are a fun holiday tradition, assuming you can overlook the fact that someone will absolutely steal the gift you wanted and you wish you just kept the gift card you brought in the first place. When wine is on the gift list, the goal is to find something that feels special but still appeals to a wide range of people.<\/p>\n A versatile white is the perfect place to start. Chardonnay is a classic choice for a reason, while Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc offer alternatives for anyone who prefers a fresher, brighter style. And because you probably don’t know whether your bottle will end up with your wine-loving best friend or the coworker who mostly drinks whatever is in the fridge, a crowd-pleaser is the way to go. Here are a few bottles from La Crema worth wrapping up<\/a>.<\/p>\n price: price: price: price: price: price: Get up to 40% off + free shipping on $125+ for Everygirl readers New Year’s Eve is not the time to show up with a bottle that requires a lengthy explanation. You want something fun, something festive, and something that’ll be a crowd-pleaser.<\/p>\n Whether you’re planning a girls’ NYE (pink wine is practically mandatory, duh) or a more classic midnight toast, La Crema has two pink picks worth adding to your lineup<\/a>: one sparkling, one still. Both bring the festive vibes, so you can choose your own adventure depending on whether you’re team bubbles or team still ros\u00e9. Your camera roll will thank you.<\/p>\nWines for Friendsgiving<\/h2>\n
