Offer this Bandol a few deep breaths in a decanter, and its demeanor will soften, exhaling cool notes of eucalyptus and fresh fennel as it cozies up to you.
Cantine Elvio Tintero
Italy | Piedmont | Langhe
This dreamy wine, perfect for aperitivo, reaffirms that we should turn more often to Piedmont not only for our reds but also for our whites!
Château Aney
France | Bordeaux | Haut Médoc
It reminds me of dried tobacco, stones, and black currant, and it should drink well for two decades.
Vignai da Duline
Italy | Friuli | Delle Venezie
A sublime late harvest of Malvasia that is sumptuously delightful with a perfectly tart bite.

Nicole's thick, chewy Côte de Brouilly is a delicious and satisfying wine aging at a glacial pace.

Golden ripe Vermentinu berries are responsible for this fleshy, succulent dry white.

Bianco Gentile and Vermentinu work so well together in this cuvée we have to wonder if this was the way things were done back in the day.
Villa Di Geggiano Italy | Tuscany | Chianti Classico Riserva
Kermit Lynch
If you don't follow the wine press, I will forgive and let you in on a secret: Kermit's book is always on the list of best wine books to give as a gift. A bottle of wine from KLWM and this book; that's a perfect gift!

This blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay is a Champagne of luxury, from its decadent golden tinge to the fine, persistent bead that playfully caresses the palate.

Clos Canarelli
France | Corsica | Corse Figari
What about real-deal vanilla aromatics? I’m talking cured Madagascar bourbon seed, lightly crushed, delicate and discreet.
Clos Canarelli
France | Corsica | Vin de France
Experience Bonifacio, one of Corsica's historic wine regions, through Canarelli's epic, age-worthy biancu.
Domaine Méo-Camuzet
France | Burgundy | Clos de Vougeot

This low-alcohol Etna white shows subtly smoky aroma complemented by notes of yellow fruit, herbs, and wild broom.

France | Savoie, Bugey, Hautes-Alpes | Seyssel
This bottle of Royal Seyssel had me Royally fooled into thinking I was enjoying a very pricey, very prestigious, vintage Champagne.
