Shakespeare played at least a small part in your vows, either the public ones you made or the private, poetic ones you read to each other behind closed doors. In fair Verona, the Allegrini family has been making its mark on Italy's most prestigious winemaking region since the 16th century. La Poja, named for the perfect plateau of Allegrini's ancient 250-acre Valpolicella vineyards, is blended from 100% Corvina into an intense, seductive Super Tuscan with a romantic story: it's an ode to family patriarch Giovanni Allegrini, who developed and perfected innovations in the art of growing and producing wine and had a special fondness for Amarone. Pair it with truffled mac n' cheese or a braised red meat dish.
Honey badgers are your spirit animal. Forces to be reckoned with, you don't really care what other people think. Guado al Tasso — literally badger in Italian — is a powerful and elegant red wine made in a Medieval hamlet estate southwest of Florence owned by the legendary Antinori Family of winemakers, and could just be your wine patronus, as well. The microclimate right on the Tuscan coast creates the perfect setting on which to grow this flagship red wine — along with organic tomatoes, olives, spelt, and Cinta Senese pigs, all of which are also sold at the estate's shop along with its wines. This is baller, supple, farm-to-table stuff perfect for celebrating your individuality and character.
Too much of anything is bad, but too much Champagne is just right. F. Scott may as well have been writing about the historic French house of Ayala, because this is a non-vintage sparkler to stock by the case. You know, just in case you need a Champagne tower. On a Tuesday. Scoring #77 out of Wine Spectator's Top 100 of 2011, this is a super-solid sparkler suitable for any and every occasion. It's light and fresh, driven by Chardonnay with hints of green fruit and almonds. Uncage that cork on your first NYE together or just your first morning as a married couple, we won't tell. Champagne secrets and all.
100% recycled copper encases the bottle keeping it cool and well protected. Beau Joie is first class Champagne produced by Bertrand Senecourt, famous for his sumptuous Charles Ellner Champagnes. A blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay sourced from prime vineyards in Epernay. This champagne has the perfect balance of dryness and sweetness with a clean, crisp taste. Zero dosage leaves it beautifully dry and elegant.
The perfect dinner guest gets along with everyone, and everyone wants to be friends with them on Facebook after. Beaux Freres is that red wine. This spicy, lush, silky Pinot Noir is why people say, "You can never go wrong with an Oregon Pinot." It's the product of a collaboration between renowned wine critic Robert Parker and his brother, sought after by collectors and highly rated by other critics, but all that hype aside it's just a brilliant, balanced red wine that will never let you down — more likely, it'll make you proud you were the one who introduced it around, even if the occasion is just Netflix & chill with boo.
If you want to rose all day like a true grand dame of California wine country, then this dry, Pinot Noir-driven rose is your picnic basket bestie. Named for the matriarch of the Wagner family, Lorna Belle Glos Wagner, the latest label in the storied Napa Valley wine empire (makers of Caymus and Conundrum, among many others) is quickly becoming known for its Pinot Noir. Oeil De Perdrix means "eye of the partridge" in French, and is also the term they use in France for pale-copper-colored rose wines like this one from the Wagner family's newer vineyards. This refreshing, summery wine isn't produced every vintage, and was only made in very limited quantities, so stock up now before the sun sets on it forever like the last day of summer vacay.
Picture it now: you and boo, feet up by the fire at some swanky lodge, in matching plush robes and slippers, cheeks blushing and reminiscing stories of your 10 years of marriage while sharing this perfectly purple cab, possibly even apres ski. One of Robert Parker's favorite 2012 private reserves to buy and save for years to come, this bottle really shows off why Beringer has had such a long and successful American winemaking legacy — and why they should earn a place in your cellar.

The original New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, Brancott has been producing this outstanding wine since 1979 and it's been a benchmark ever since. It's an essential bedfellow to fresh oysters and seafood with its juicy acidity and lime zest. With its easy open twist cap and Summertime vibes, the only thing this bottle doesn't come with is floaties.
Weaving together the best grapes from some of the most storied winemaking regions in Napa Valley — Rutherford, St Helena, Calistoga — the Tapestry Reserve from Beaulieu is a virtual Northern California wine tasting vacation blended into a single bottle. It's a deep, layered, graceful red blend with classic Napa Cabernet at its core, a perfect homage to celebrating your first 5 years of blended family together — maybe a little Carole King on Spotify just to be meta.
Cult classics are your thing, especially if they're limited editions. This is an "up talking into the wee hours of the night" kind of white, just like the winemakers from this famed California house who picked these grapes in the dark, aged them in French oak, and made them into this coveted, rare reserve of creamy, toasty, butterscotch-y goodness. Put a few away for safekeeping before they're gone forever.
One of the jewels in the crown of your Italian wine collection, this standard-bearing Brunello will make real wine-knowledge royalty out of even the most Mia Thermopolous-like drinkers. At the CastelGiocondo estate high above Montalcino, a garnet-red wine is born of adverse conditions: full-bodied, refined and pretty, an instant classic. Critics love its silky, fruity, minerally refinement and you will, too — especially if you can hold onto it until 2017, maybe to celebrate your first anniversary.
When you're feeling like royalty but your bank account is feeling more like a pauper, drink this big-bang-for-your-bucks Italian red made at a real life castle. Critics say it's one of few wines in the world that offer this level of quality for the money. Bianchi is one of the first Italian producers to take white grapes out of his Chianti, making this vintage a celebration of all that red fruit in what critic Antonio Galloni called "a regal expression of sangiovese." Stock up by the case when times are flush to enjoy when they're not so much — for richer or for poorer, right?
Every wine lover needs bottles in their collection that are versatile and a pleasure to drink while you wait for your prime bottles to age to perfection. Chappellet's affordable red blend from the Pritchard Hill region of Napa Valley, legendary for Cab-based blends, is that bottle. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, it's a smooth, supple, textured red with a complex array of aromas and flavors that go perfectly with everything from Asian takeout to burgers and fries, classic roasted dishes and pasta to BBQ and stews.
