Kyle MachLachlan has his own winery and offers his best wine choices for Thanksgiving

Harry Smith from CBS’s “Early Show” tasted wines with Orso — er — Kyle MachLachlan and learned about Orson’s — er — Kyle’s winery “Pursued by Bear,” named for a Shakespearean stage direction in “The Winter’s Tale.”

OK, listen. I rightfully work under the assumption that most of the actors on “Desperate Housewives” DO share some characteristics with their characters, because, well, they’re the same human playing them. But let’s be real here — they’re acting. I mean, I pray/hope Teri Hatcher isn’t actually a helpless hopeless screechy self-indulged baby.

But I fail to see many difference between Kyle MachLachlan and Orson Hodge. Orson’s got a little more crazy, sure. He steals — and Kyle doesn’t. And Orson’s faux-British Madonna accent is a little more pronounced than Kyle’s. Yet … they’ve got the same tastes for fine things. His cabernet goes for $65…hardly a cheap bottle for Thanksgiving.

I’ve spent the last several years of my life doing all I can to make myself feel better about being an anti-snob (one could call me a heathen) in the snobby world of wine drinking: Going on an endless search for that best bottle of wine for $6.99 at Trader Joe’s; Mixing red two-buck chuck with Coke for something different (I know how it sounds. It’s fantastic, though — try it); Not swirling it and tasting it in that slurpy way that lets everyone know/think I make $200K a year. I don’t. I write a “Desperate Housewives” blog.

Come on, Kyle/Orson. You’re hurtin’ my cause with this stuff! At least the site for your winery is pretty adorable.
