Monte del Frá Lena di Mezzo Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2016, Veneto D.O.C.G., Italy: From the Veneto wine region, Monte del Frá Lena Di Mezzo 2016 is a very expressive, juicy and full-bodied Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico. Look for blackberry, cassis, dark cherry, dried tobacco leaf, cedar spice and earthy flavours on the palate. Tannins are velvety. Drink or hold. Pour with game roasts or a Bistecca Florentine.

Lolo Albariño 2022, Rías Baixas D.O., Spain: From the Rías Baixas wine region, Lolo 2022 Albariño is produced by the Cooperativa Vitivinícola Arousana from Old Vines Albariño, some over 300 years of age! In close proximity to the Northern Atlantic Ocean, vines are treated to sea fogs, briny mineral sea spray complementing Albariño's melon, zesty grapefruit and blanched almond flavours with briny mineral notes. Lovely and fresh now, enjoy it chilled with all things seafood. Drink: 2024-2026. 483933 12.50% D 750 mL  $21.95 Score: 89/100. March 16, 2024 Sensational Shellfish Wine Full Review
