Your Boss & Amarone And then there’s your boss. Buy the big cheese something elevated, charming and smart—you know, to mirror your boss’s best traits (wink, wink). Give a bottle of Amarone, the bold, sophisticated classic from Italy that is revered all over the world. A bottle sure to please is the Masi Costasera Amarone della Valpolicella Classico DOCG from the Veneto region of Italy. This rich, complex red teems with flavours and aromas of dark, muddled berry fruit layered with tobacco, dark chocolate, roasted nuts and more. Each sip lingers for ages on the finish.

Your Secret Santa Recipient & Prosecco

When you need to find a great gift under $25, such as for a secret Santa gift exchange, wrap up a bottle of Brilla! Prosecco DOC from Italy. It’s a brilliant bubbly with a suitably sparkly label, so it’s fun to receive but also totally regiftable. This Prosecco was created to evoke conviviality—there’s even an exclamation mark after the name on the label. The bubbles are persistent, the flavour is pure pear and the wine is beautifully balanced with an airy kiss of sweetness offsetting bright, lip-smacking acidity. Just a fabulous fizz inside and out to wrap up and stick a bow on. Ho, ho, ho! For a beautiful alternative, try Brilla! Prosecco Rosé in a matching pink bottle.
