Rosé
This turkey chili with beans recipe is a heavier dish since it’s tomato based. While you could select a chilled white wine, or even a light red wine; I feel that a Rosé is the best of both worlds. It goes well with the heartiness of the chili and also is not overly sweet, which makes for the perfect mix. Follow the link to our wine review site to find our favorite Rosé wines-LetsHaveWine.com
