Last Minute Holiday Wine Guide

Ancona's Wines is overflowing with gifts for everyone on your list! Browse our collection of classic wines, craft beer and unique spirits to find the perfect gift for that special someone this holiday.
What's red hot this holiday season? It's not Rhone, Burgundy, or Bordeaux... It's Lebanon! Chateau Musar is one of the Middle East's iconic wineries making wines with a style and character all its own. Chateau Musar 2001 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Carignan with distinctively nice aromas and flavors. It is an absolute must-have bottle for the ultimate wine collector. If you're looking for a bottle that can age for decades, we've got you covered. Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Arvedi 2004 is a superb, elegant Amarone graced with expressive dark red fruit, flowers, tobacco and spices, all supported by finessed, silky tannins. This 94 point stunner is a terrific, cellar worthy bottle that will only get better with age.

Celebrate in style with a bottle of Champagne! Domaine Bruno Gobillard Brut Vieilles Vignes
is a linear yet creamy Champagne that offers finely delineated notes of honey, pear, citrus and brioche. Its refined texture lends additional complexity while lively acidity provides lift on the mouthwatering, aromatic finish. Vilmart & Cie Grand Cellier Champagne possesses gorgeous intensity in its piercing notes of lemon, white flowers and spices. Smoky, floral notes continue to emerge as the wine shows off its class and sheer energy. It received a remarkable 93 point score from Wine Advocate.
For the California Chard lover on your list Frank Family Chardonnay 2012 is fruit forward and expressive with voluptuous volume. Its lively acidity, combined with a rich creaminess and almond toffee flavors, give this wine a long, pleasing finish. If you're looking for something off the beaten path, Blindfold White Blend 2012 by the Prisoner Wine Company makes a unique gift. It has beautiful aromas of tropical fruit, baked apple and pear, incredible richness while maintaining acidity and freshness.
