Tenuta Luce Luce 2019
Toscana IGT
February 17, 2026 - Luce is a bold, Super Tuscan wine that blends the power of Sangiovese with the roundness of Merlot, creating a unique expression of Montalcino. Born from a partnership between the Marchese Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi, the wine combines dark fruit, floral and spice notes, and chewy tannins, showcasing the region’s distinctive character. The estate’s name, “Luce” (light), is inspired by the altar at Florence’s Santo Spirito church, reflecting the estate’s deep-rooted history and the balance between tradition and innovation.

Ornellaia Ornellaia Bianco 2019
Bolgheri
February 17, 2026 - Following Ornellaia’s philosophy, Ornellaia Bianco is the estate’s vision of a world-class white wine, crafted from three small, north-facing vineyards that showcase the terroir’s potential beyond reds. A blend of 90% Sauvignon and 10% Viognier, the wine glows sunshine gold in the glass. It opens with complex exotic fruit aromas and a strong mineral backbone. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and poised, driven by bright acidity and finishing with a mouthwatering freshness.

Xavier Milhade Wines Château Recougne 2019
Bordeaux Superieur
February 17, 2026 - Legend has it that Château Recougne earned its name in “recognition” by Henri IV in the early 1600s. Wine has been made here for 400 years, yet the estate feels more relevant than ever. As Bordeaux shifts toward freshness and balance, Recougne has quietly stayed the course, producing pure, energetic wines with red and black fruit and earthy complexity. Bottles from the 1950s and ’60s still drink beautifully. Today, fourth-generation winemaker Marc Milhade carries the torch, focusing on vineyard work and maintaining a low-intervention approach in the cellar.

E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2019
Côtes du Rhône
February 17, 2026 - E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge is a standout in its class, made with the same rigor and care as the estate’s top wines. Unusually Syrah-based, it offers greater depth, structure, and aromatic intensity than most wines in the category. It is aged for two years in a mix of stainless steel and large oak foudres, with deliberate blending throughout the process to ensure balance and complexity. This is not just a regional ambassador—it is a wine that reflects Guigal’s commitment to excellence at every level. It is a benchmark bottle and an extraordinary value.
