It’s officially the season of festive dinners, Friendsgiving gatherings, holiday parties, and “What wine should I bring?” moments. On this year’s Sip Sip Hooray Holiday Wine episode, the Two Marys share their top picks for the 2025 season—plus expert recommendations from winemakers across California and beyond.
On the show today we've enlisted help from some friends of the pod to suggest the best wines for festive times. No doubt you've seen many holiday wine guides about what to drink with Thanksgiving and other holiday meals, or what to give friends and family. But we've got our own take on this and we hope to help you sort out what will make that magical pairing, that magical gift this holiday season.
Check out our recommendations for sparkling wine, white wine, red wine, non-alcoholic wine, what to bring for Friendsgiving and wine related gifts to give.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
