Nivarius Edición Limitada Blanco 2019, Rioja D.O.C.A., Spain: Toasted almond and white-flower aromas meet baked apple and lemon-zest on a creamy, oak-kissed palate. Bright acidity and a long, nutty finish promise graceful aging. Pairs equally well with mushroom risotto or grilled sea bass with almond crust. Food pairings: poached salmon, summer squash ravioli, veal cutlets, grilled chicken, crab cakes and aioli. Drink: 2025 - 2029 15591 14% XD 750 mL $29.95 Score: 93/100. September 2025.

Château Clairac Tradition 2021, Blaye, Côtes De Bordeaux, Bordeaux A.O.C., France: Plush dark-plum compote and black-raspberry ripple rest on a firm tannic bone in this poised red. A swirl of graphite deepens the finish. Ideal with herb-crumbed lamb cutlets and caramelized-onion flatbread. Food pairings: beef kebabs, slow-braised short ribs, meat-lover's pizza.
