Michael Murtaugh/NYT Wirecutter; food styling by Maggie Ruggiero Top pick Sweet, savory, and deeply smoked, this meaty mackerel was a crowd favorite.

Michael Murtaugh/NYT Wirecutter Top pick Slightly sweet, fresh, fruity, and overall balanced, this white has a light sparkle and reminded us of green apples and dried pears. It went well with the nuttiness in hard cheeses and cured meats. Why we like it: The Leitz Eins Zwei Zero Riesling is a good choice if you’re…
