Depends on what you're trying to do with the turkey.
Wine can have a tenderizing effect on the meat, and can also impart really nice flavors.
You can use it to braise the turkey, or as a marinade after. But then the question of which wine to use comes into play.
Quick tip: Make sure the wine you are using tastes appropriate for your meal. Think about the flavors in the wine and keep in mind that as you cook with a wine, those flavors will amplify and get stronger as the alcohol and water evaporate.
I've had a lot of luck with academie wines here in California. They've got a website: www.academiewines.com. Four blends for different types of wine flavors in your meal. You can drink the wines too - they're actually pretty nice.
Good luck - hope your turkey turns out great!

Can cooking Sherry be used instead of Red Wine Vinegar?
Yes, but the flavors will be different. And you should use real wine or real sherry, not the salt heavy 'cooking' versions found in many grocery stores. The alcohol releases and dissolves some flavors that water based recipes will not, adding to the flavors. Essentially any alcohol should be allowed to evaporate through heating to leave the flavor of the wine used. Whether a recipe calls for cooking sherry, wine, or not, I often deglaze any meats cooked in a frying pan with red or white wine. The French say that you should use the best wine you can afford for this process but I use whatever I have to hand.
