"A stunning Albarino (Spain's answer to Condrieu?)" - Robert Parker

"By far, the greatest albarino I have ever tried!" - Brian Maxwell 4 1/2 stars

Perfect wine to pair with grilled fish or shellfish. If you're looking for this year's perfect summer white wine, look no further.

Light gold in color, it offers up a splendid bouquet of mineral, honeysuckle, lemon, and tropical aromas. Round, creamy, and remarkably concentrated, this outstanding effort will provide much pleasure over the next 4 years.

Buy Wine 2005 Villa I Cipressi Brunello di Montalcino at Gary's Wine & Marketplace NJ Wine Store


http://www.garyswine.com/fine_wine/italy/14005.html

One of 05's Highest-Rated Brunellos Found Only at Gary's
Free Shipping on 6-packs
Price: $49.99
Reg: $62.99
ON SALE!

James Suckling of the Wine Spectator rated 110 Brunellos from the 2005 vintage and the 2005 Villa I Cipressi Brunello di Montalcino was the highest rated!

... And we now have it in stock!
We loved the 2004 and in our opinion it's been flying under the radar for too long .. well not anymore. This 94 point, full bodied and elegant wine is now available to you AND you can only find this spectacular wine at Gary's!

Villa I Cipressi is located near the town of Montalcino, the operation started out by producing several different types of honey about twenty years ago. The apiculture business expanded to include honey-based products (liqueurs, sweets, cookies) before adding legumes, olive oil, and eventually wine.

This region of Tuscany is known for its warmer climate, producing wines that are bigger bodied, denser and packed with flavor. The warmth also provides winemakers more assurances that each year sangiovese grapes will indeed ripen and produce wines of nuance and complexity.

Wine Spectator 94 points - Fabulous aromas of flowers, incense, Indian spices and dark fruits. Full-bodied, with polished, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Layered and concentrated, with a dense midpalate of fruit. Elegant and full of finesse. A small producer on a roll.

Buy Wine 2004 Querciarossa Fulgente at Gary's Wine and Marketplace NJ Wine Store


http://www.garyswine.com/fine_wine/italy/13874.html

$1/btl Shipping on 6-Packs, Free Shipping on Case
Price: $14.99
Reg: $19.99
ON SALE!

Earlier this year, Gary and a few of our buyers sat down to a very traditional Italian dinner with the importer of several of our Italian wines. As usual, he had some good Brunellos and Chiantis for us to taste, but the one wine that really caught our attention was the 2004 Querciarossa Fulgente Rosso from Tuscany.

It was an impressive blend of Italian varietals (Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Colorino, Montepulciano, Alicante, Ciliegiolo and Teroldeco), -- the flavors were so intense: ripe red fruit, chocolate and spice, that we would have pegged it for a California style wine. But try it, as we did, with hearty Italian food and you'll know that Italy is where these grapes really belong.

We shouldn't have been surprised that the wine was so good; after all, it hails from the same proprietors that own Poggio Il Castellare, producers of the Brunello that ranked #11 in Wine Spectator's Top 100 last year. But what definitely surprised us was the price we were able to work out - Only $14.99 on sale, for a wine that drinks like something twice the price! Needless to say, we stocked up on all we could, and suggest you do the same for some everyday wine that over-delivers each time we taste it.

Wine Spectator 90 Points -- Big and rich, with loads of blackberry, licorice and mineral character. Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Alicante, Teroldego, Ciliegiolo and Colorino. Best after 2008. 665 cases made. -JS

Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Style:
Red Wine
Price: $79.99
Reg: $99.99
ON SALE!

The Wine Spectator rated the 2007 vintage 94-97 points and Robert Parker rated the 2007 vintage 96 points! We think it's the best vintage since 1997!

We've been eagerly awaiting to the release of the 2007 Oakville East Exposure Cabernet Sauvignon. It's fourth vintage produced is easily it's best vintage to date. The vineyards are located on the eastern section of Oakville neighboring Screaming Eagle, Rudd, Dalla Valle, and Phelps Backus. Some of the fruit for the Oakville East was used for Cakebread Three Sisters and Dalla Valle Maya in the past. So, even though the winery is new the vineyards have been producing great wine for a long time.

The Oakville East is one of the top Cabs coming out of Napa
that is still under-the-radar at least with those who have not tasted the wine yet. As soon as we receive the new vintage we email those customers that have previously bought the wine and it seems every year we're selling more and more upon release.

On individual merits, this 2007 Cabernet blend stands strong, but it's the sum of the total which really ups the ante; gentle swells of blue and black fruit tickle the nose, as plushy waves of roasted plum, cedar and distinctive minerality coat the palate. Round, elegant tannins finely integrate with the intense concentration, balance, and an endless finish. We highly recommend this explosive Cabernet from one of the best Napa vintages in over a decade.

Buy Wine 2008 GF Going Forward Sonoma Coast Chardonnay at Gary's Wine and Marketplace NJ Wine Store

ON SALE!
For Gary's own "Going Forward" wines, we're partnering with top quality wineries from the best growing regions to bring wine to you that dramatically over-delivers on flavor. We identify wineries in the very best regions of California for each grape variety -- Napa for Cabernet, the Russian River Valley for Pinot Noir, and for our inaugural Chardonnay, the Sonoma Coast.

The Sonoma Coast AVA stretches from the Carneros region at San Pablo Bay up the coast to Mendocino County and east over the Coastal range into the western half of Sonoma. The Sonoma Coast is a cool climate region with fog shrouded coastal microclimates, and rugged mountain tops and valleys. The days begin in bright sunshine, with the coastal fog bank out over the ocean. As the day warms, the cooling fog rolls in and blankets the Chardonnay vines, keeping them cool in the afternoons and evenings, producing ideal balance and ripeness.

Our Going Forward Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is the direct result of this spectacular Chardonnay growing region, and the expertise of the winemaking at our partner winery. The palate is all unctuous lush ripe pear and lemon curd, giving way to clean minerality on the finish. Everything about this wine tells you why we decided to begin making our inaugural "Going Forward" Chardonnay in the Sonoma Coast and nowhere else!

2009 Bordeaux Futures - 2009 Chateau Saint Pierre St Julien

Price: $74.98
Reg: $95.00
ON SALE!

Robert Parker 94-98 Points

This has been a fabulous wine over recent vintages, but I do not think many consumers have caught on. Of course, there is far less of this classified-growth St.-Julien than of any of the Leovilles, Beychevelle, Talbot, Gruaud Larose, or Branaire Ducru. Unbelievably powerful, rich, and impressive, this may be the finest St.-Pierre ever made. An inky/purple color is followed by notes of creme de cassis, spring flowers, and forest floor, a layered, full-bodied, powerful mouthfeel, perfect balance, and extraordinary richness, purity, and unctuosity. This great St.-Julien should hit its peak in 7-10 years, and last for 30-50. Bravo! (Tasted two times.) Drink 2017-2067.

Wine Spectator 91-94 Points

Sultanas and subtle spices on the nose. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and excellent fruit concentration. Long and succulent. Stylish stuff.

Neal Martin's Wine Journal 93-95 Points

Tasted at the UGC. Bright blackberry, boysenberry and minerals on the tightly wound nose. Good definition and lift, quite a classy Saint Julien nose. It has a beautifully balanced palate, ripe tannins, wonderful definition with a sensuality that I have never encountered before in St. Pierre. Plush and assured on the mineral-rich finish. Undoubtedly the finest St. Pierre that I have tasted. Tasted March 2010.

Jancis Robinson 17+/20 Points

Very deep dark crimson - glossy colour. Aromatic and lifted. A little bit brutal in its make-up but very ambitious and introvert. Solid and dry on the finish. Very drying finish. Date tasted 1st April 2010. Drink 2020-2032.

Decanter 17.5/20 Points

Black red, elegantly concentrated blackcurrant fruit, quite leafy and lifted with a touch of licquorice spice, both floral and a little exotic, lovely rich, ripe fruit and good future. Drink 2015-25.

Robert Parker 91-93 Points

The best Rouget I have ever tasted, the 2009 displays terrific aromas of kirsch liqueur and loamy soil as well as a plump, fat, luscious personality. With sensational concentration and purity, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and an enormous fruit character, this beauty should drink well for 15 or more years. (Tasted three times.) Drink 2010-2025.

Wine Spectator 91-94 Points

Blueberry and mineral on the nose. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a fruity, vanilla and berry finish. Long. Superpolished and pretty.

Neal Martin's Wine Journal 91-93 Points

Tasted at Chateau Clinet. The Rouget '09 has a fresh, well defined bouquet with wild strawberry, cherry and a touch of rose petal...very feminine and fragrant. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, ripe tannins, just a little toasty and spicy, good weight, modern in style but well balanced with good acidity and delineation towards the finish with hints of bay leaf and spice. Cohesive, very good length. Look out for Rouget upping the ante over the next few years…this is just the beginning. Tasted April 2010.

Jancis Robinson 17/20 Points

Very thick. Perfumed. Very sweet and opulent and ambitious. A bit of tannin on the end. You could almost stand a spoon up in this. Clinet? Very rich. Pretty alcoholic finish but there is lots of rich fruit, too. Date tasted 29th March 2010. Drink 2015-2028.

Decanter 17.5/20 Points

Another fine wine from this now consistent (and still relatively good value) estate. Aromatic, opulent, the texture of the tannins fine. Long finish. Drink 2016-2030.

Neal Martin Wine Advocate 95-97 Points

The minerality and stoniness really comes through on the nose of this Rieussec, more than the 2007. The palate is very well balanced with superb acidity, real tension, steely with great precision with notes of apricot, white peach and honey on the beautifully defined finish. Probably the best Rieussec since the astounding 2001.

Wine Spectator 92-95 Points

Lemon peel and pear tart on the nose. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with good acidity, lemon meringue flavors and a spicy finish.

Jancis Robinson 18/20 Points

Heavy and rich and wonderfully sumptuous. Great richness. Density and breadth. Still very chewy but there is lots here. Very rewarding. Date tasted 29th March 2010. Drink 2018-2036.

Decanter 18/20 Points

Massive, with great transformed level of alcohol, useful when the sugar content is so high too, a monument of a wine, but a wait of 10 years at least will be necessary to do justice to its majestic power.

Robert Parker 92-95 Points

Composed of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon and 42% Merlot, this large estate appears to have produced their greatest wine since the 1986. The alcohols came in at 13.9%, and the wine reveals extraordinary density, power, and richness as well as explosive fruit, and terrific acidity, intensity, and power. Yet it tastes like a crisp, delicate Margaux. Yields were 40 hectoliters per hectare. This outstanding 2009 should age nicely for 35-40+ years. (Tasted two times.) Drink 2010-2050.

Wine Spectator 93-96 Points

Shows a lovely concentration of currant and blackberry. Hints of vanilla follow through to a full body, with layers of ripe fruit and fine, fruit-coated tannins. I love the ripe and pretty fruit to this. Very fruit-forward. The château cut back on the new wood, and went for a fruitier style. I like thatShows a lovely concentration of currant and blackberry.

Neal Martin's Wine Journal 96-98 Points

Tasted at the chateau and UGC. A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon and 42% Merlot, with 10% vin de presse. The Merlot picked from 22nd to 25th September then 28th September until 1st October. The Cabernet picked 3rd October and from 5th until 11th October (no Cabernet Franc and the Petit Verdot, though ripe, just did not blend well), cropped at 41hl/ha. The nose is well defined, very classic in style with blackberry, black olive, graphite and an intriguing note of woodbines. This is a magnificent Rauzan-Segla, easily the best I have tasted at en primeur. Firstly, it is much more harmonious than usual at this nascent stage, the acidity level is just about perfect, there is a vibrancy that is really enthralling and the poise on the finish ranks alongside that of Chateau Margaux, tasted just before. The finish is very strong, slightly creamy in texture, but also superbly defined and with superb length. Very natural and refine, yet powerful. This may be the best Rauzan Segla that John Kolasa has made. Tasted March 2010

Jancis Robinson 17.5/20 Points

Dark crimson. Light and fragrant. Thick on the palate, almost soupy! Should give lots of pleasure - does not need food. One to drink at the bar... Lots of care in tannin management, I would have thought. A wine with real intensity. Date tasted 31st March 2010. Drink 2016-2026.

Decanter 18.5/20 Points

Fine dense red, beautifully poised, naturally concentrated wild roses Margaux nose, superb fragrance that leads to a finely polished palate with great depth and purity, a great vineyard expression, power and finesse all in balance, very good indeed. Drink 2015-35.

Robert Parker 92-95 Points

This masculine-styled Pomerol exhibits notes of iron, earth, vitamins, black cherries, and blackberries. It is reminiscent of a Trotanoy in terms of personality and appellation character. Full-bodied and super-dense with a boatload of tannin as well as unbridled power, richness, and depth, this 2009 will require patience (5-7 years), but should last for three decades or more. (Tasted once.)

Wine Spectator 95-98 Points

Offers fabulous aromas of crushed blackberry and blueberry, with lightly roasted coffee bean and black olive. Full-bodied, delivering polished, chewy tannins and a long, juicy finish. Rich and powerful. Blockbuster. Roasted fruit on this. Best ever from here?—J.S.

Neal Martin's Wine Journal 91-93 Points

Tasted at JP Moueix. As usual, the Providence has a certain hubris on the nose, ripe plum and damson fruit, well defined with a touch of orange extract. Are there flirtations with some fresh prune notes here? The palate is full-bodied, almost thrusting tannins, flattering black cherry fruit, apricot and kirsch, firming up towards the rounded, peppery finish. Moderate length. Very fine. Tasted April 2010.

Jancis Robinson 17-/20 Points

Dark crimson. Another wine, like Hosanna, where the ripeness is extreme. Very sweet start. Big and inky and muscular. Pretty rude tannins on the finish. A bit of a big blusterer. A bit ungainly. Good for those who seek mass? A little bit of alcohol on the end. But solid true wine – not confected.

Buy Wine 2007 Petrolo Torrione Toscana at Gary's Wine and Marketplace NJ Wine Store

2007 Petrolo Torrione Toscana [SELL OUT ALERT!]
WS 94pt Italian Drinking Like a Bottle Double Its Price $1/btl Shipping on 6-packs, Free Shipping on Cases

Petrolo's Torrione is always one of the most anticipated Tuscan releases each year. And for a good reason: despite great reviews and scores in the nineties, it has maintained a price of $30-35 for several vintages. The 2007 vintage scored the highest rating from the Wine Spectator since 1997: 94 points! This is definitely one of those wines that drinks more like something nearly double its price.

The Torrione 2007 is made primarily from Sangiovese grapes from an area just outside Chianti Classico in Tuscany. The 2007 Torrione is spectacular with awesome concentration and that typical silkiness that Torrione normally shows. It's full-bodied Tuscan red that could easily rival a Brunello (also made from 100% Sanigovese).

Wine Spectator 94 points

Clear and precise, with beautiful aromas of plum, berries and chocolate. Full-bodied and refined, with a dense yet elegant palate of plum, chocolate and cherry. Long and caressing. Wonderfully polished. Very fine. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best after 2010. 3,750 cases made.-JS
