Enticing notes of graphite, anise and lavender are an aromatic overtone to this red’s appealing range of ripe cherry, raspberry and strawberry fruit flavors. Bright and harmonious, with supple tannins on the lingering finish of stone, fragrant herbs and spices. Classy. Drink now through 2040.

A subtly spicy and elegant wine with aromas of embers, bark, fresh roses, violets, red currants, pomegranates, restrained blood oranges and licorice. Medium-bodied with silky and refined tannins, refreshing acidity and a juicy, savory finish. Drink now.

This Nebbiolo from cult winery Arpepe in Lombardy is a real treat. Grippy, zippy and vertical, with hunger-inducing sapidity, at its core are some soft, bright cherry and red berry fruits, with some underlying deeper notes of blackberry. A class act.
