Pascual Toso Limited-Edition Malbec and Inniskillin Okanagan Riesling

The wine.

The Pascual Toso limited-edition malbec, $19, is everything you might expect from such a reputable producer, one that over-delivers at every price point. Come to think of it, perhaps this bottle deserves even more credit; it is quite elegant, well-structured, with layers of fruit, bits of tobacco, and a hint of black licorice. We’re tempted to say you should try this with a grilled white fish of some sort, even though that may seem a bit against the norm. Inniskillin Okanagan has recently released its latest vintage of riesling icewine, just in time for sipping while you begin the arduous process of wrapping presents, assuming you have already finished your list. At $60 (375ml), you can likely give a bottle or three away, but probably only to the very closest of confidantes.
