Boccadigabbia 2001 Akronte Cabernet Sauvignon (Marche)
- Editors' Choice
- $52
This is a delightfully chewy, extracted and penetrating wine that oozes blackness: Black licorice, black fruit, resin, slate, charcoal and chalkboard grow in intensity with each swirl. A very intense, modern wine that sees 18 months of oak aging for taut tannins and a supple, velvety mouthfeel. Would pair well with aged cheeses or grilled meats.

Fazi Battaglia 2005 Arkezia Muffo di San Sisto White (Marche)
- Online Exclusive
A beautifully luminous wine that opens with unbelievable elegance and delicacy. You can just recognize aromas of fuzzy peach and white mushroom associated with the muffo, but they are backed by the complex presence of almond, honey, peach and slight shadings of exotic spice and cinnamon.

Fazi Battaglia 2001 Arkezia Muffa di San Sisto Verdicchio (Marche)
- Editors' Choice
- $65
Verdicchio grapes from the San Sisto vineyard are left on the vine until they have shriveled up and show signs of botrytis, or noble rot, and are harvested in late December to produce an impressive dessert wine with thick layers of aromas and flavor. The almond paste and honey backed by herbal notes and crisp acidity are simply irresistible.

Umani Ronchi 2004 Le Busche White (Marche)
- $22
A barrique-fermented blend of Verdicchio and Chardonnay, Le Busche is the kind of wine you’ll want to serve with roast turkey or lasagna with crusty melted cheese. Its color is solid gold and notes of banana, vanilla, yellow apple and exotic spice create an ensemble that is steady enough to pair with hearty dishes.
