La Lecciaia 2017 Rosso di Montalcino
$16.99 – $156.00Tuscany Italy
Rosso is imminently drinkable, with bright cherry, incense and smoky scents. The wine is medium-bodied on the palate, with fine tannins and good acidity to complement the buoyant fruit. While this is totally enjoyable now, it will age nicely for the next seven years.

La Macchiole 2018 Paleo Rosso Bolgheri
$129.99 – $720.00Napa Valley California
Wine Advocate 97 Rating
You could argue that this wine changed Italian wine, because it was the first to fully embrace the potential of Cabernet Franc in the bel paese. The Le Macchiole 2018 Paleo has a spicy and tangy personality with dark fruit, bitter chocolate and tarry smoke. Coming back to my open bottle 24 hours later, I got some green olive and rosemary essence. The mouthfeel fleshes out considerably, and there is beautiful structure to hold it firmly together. Other vintners in Bolgheri have told me of their difficulties with Cabernet Franc in the 2018 vintage, which saw rain toward the end of the season. This wine feels magically immune to those issues and probably means that the expert vineyard team harvested at the right moment.

An excellent blend with Monastrell, Syrah and Garnacha. Deep and glossy with blackberries, wild spices and mineral. Concentrated but not hefty. Juicy, with a medium-to full-bodied palate enveloped by fresh, chalky tannins. Balance is the key here. Delicious now but can hold.

A nice touch of creaminess works really well here and further extends the finish. 80% tempranillo and 20% garnacha. Drink or hold.
