Happy Grapesgiving, grapefriends! So many people and so many wines to be thankful for. You’ve probably seen a ton of stories about what to pair with your Thanksgiving feast – don’t believe any of them.

No one would argue that the Real Housewives shows are some of the grapiest on TV. And on the New York version, Ramona even has her name on her own wine and Luann has dated a wine importer.
