A textbook Torrontés, showing geranium, peach and Meyer lemon aromas up front, this picks up rich candied orange peel and juicy peach notes, which have just enough acidity to keep the floridness in check. Drink now. 12,000 cases made, 3,000 cases imported.—Aaron Romano

LA SERENA
Brunello Di Montalcino 2018
$55
Shows generous black cherry and blackberry fruit, along with distinctive notes of tamarind, gingerbread and licorice. Reveals more breadth and richness than its peers, with a long, firm chocolate- and baking spice–inflected finish. The aromas alone are worth the price of admission. Best from 2025 through 2039. 2,000 cases made, 850 cases imported.—Bruce Sanderson
