The Poggio Landi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino (a certified organic wine) has a note of teak wood or Indian furniture shop that gives this wine a slightly exotic personality. To that, I would add dark fruit, dried currant and sweet blueberry. It ends with medium fruit weight and open-knit tannins that give the wine accessibility. Drink date: 2024-2039.

Sourced from a vineyard planted between 1970 and 1980, this wine is complex and elegant (like the holidays themselves). It has bright red fruit interwoven with black raspberry, strawberry, tar, earth, and garden herbs. Precise and made for food, it will continue to evolve through 2030.

LE RAGOSE RISERVA AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA CLASSICO 2013 DOCG ... Fermented in stainless steel tanks using indige- nous yeasts ... spent no fewer than eight years in classic large, old Slavonian oak barrels. The result is well worth waiting for. Michael Garner: Leafy and woody nose. Ripe, round and chocolately, hints of mushroom and marron glacé, good definition of mature fruit flavours. A long, nuanced finish. Mature but could go on. Sara Bachiorri: Dried herbs and sweet cherry fruit. Rounded mouthfeel, a little spirity. Long finish, notes of raisin and dark chocolate with liquorice ... Drinking window: 2024-2032.
