Ascheri Barolo 2020, Piedmont D.O.C.G., Italy: Ascheri Barolo dances with strawberry and rosehip perfume threaded by tar and warm spice, then glides across a lacy palate of refined tannins and juicy finish. A great pairing for braised short ribs or wild-boar ragu. Barolo food pairings: roast partridge, venison sausage cassoulet, venison Swiss steak.

Blaauwklippen Chardonnay 2023, Stellenbosch W.O., South Africa: This barrel-aged white opens with lemon-curd and waxy-lees aromas that give way to a rich, round palate of pressed-pear and stone fruit, framed by crisp acidity and a savory finale. Try it alongside roast chicken or creamy pasta. Chardonnay food pairings: summer salads, grilled whitefish, grilled shrimp. Drink: 2025 - 2027 45188 13.5% XD 750 mL $19.95 Score: 92/100.
