A mature 2015 Chablis Premier Cru L’Homme Mort adds another dimension, its old-vine depth softened into layers of preserved lemon, oyster shell and gently honeyed complexity. Blanc de \u003cstrong\u003eLynch-Bages\u003c\/strong\u003e brings fragrant, polished white Bordeaux to the table, while \u003cstrong\u003eGrosset’s\u003c\/strong\u003e Polish Hill Riesling delivers the electric lime intensity and mineral tension that have made it an Australian benchmark.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe five reds have the presence to match. \u003cstrong\u003eChâteau La Gaffelière\u003c\/strong\u003e’s 2015 Saint-Émilion combines generous dark fruit with floral fragrance and emerging savoury complexity, while \u003cstrong\u003eLa Rioja Alta\u003c\/strong\u003e’s 2016 Gran Reserva 904 offers the silky red fruit, cedar and tobacco of beautifully composed classical Rioja. Glaetzer’s \u003cstrong\u003eAmon-Ra\u003c\/strong\u003e brings the concentration and spice of old-vine Barossa Shiraz, alongside the cassis, graphite and finely structured depth of \u003cstrong\u003eBoekenhoutskloof\u003c\/strong\u003e’s Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon. Completing the line-up is \u003cstrong\u003eDomaine Antonin Guyon’s Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru\u003c\/strong\u003e, a Burgundy of dark cherry, violet and woodland complexity, with the depth and fine tannins to reward an evening’s attention or further patience in the cellar.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo open proceedings, \u003cstrong\u003eDuval-Leroy’s 2008 Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru\u003c\/strong\u003e Prestige offers the pleasures of mature vintage Champagne: fine bubbles, citrus oil, roasted almond and brioche, held together by a long, fresh mineral finish. For the final glass, a half bottle of \u003cstrong\u003eChâteau Suduiraut\u003c\/strong\u003e’s 2013 Sauternes brings golden apricot, candied orange and honeyed richness, equally at home beside a fruit tart or a generous wedge of Roquefort.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA thoughtful gift for a serious wine lover, or a Christmas collection to make your own.
