WA 91 point 2005 San Cristobal Ribera del Duero--Free Shipping with Purchase of a Case

2005 San Cristobal Ribera del Duero

You can never have too much of a good thing. When we brought in the 2004 San Cristobal Ribera del Duero, we sold out of it very quickly. Our customers, even though they had never heard of this wine before, quickly became fans of this wine. With the 2005 vintage, San Cristobal looks to have a repeat of its past success. It garnered a 91 point rating from the Wine Advocate, saying it is more structured than the 2004. At $19.99, this is a great buy. To sweeten the deal, we're throwing in free shipping when you purchase a case. Be sure to check out the full Wine Advocate review below as well as a video of Gary tasting the '05 San Cristobal and offering his thoughts on it. Cheers!

The 2005 Conde San Cristobal is the same blend as the 2004 and received the same oak treatment. It is a bit less fragrant and more marked by oak. On the palate it is more backward and structured, needing at least 3-5 years to show its best stuff. Aside from that, it has a similar flavor profile and a long, pure finish. Drink it through 2025.

2005 Bodegas Aalto Ribera del Duero


It's a well-known fact that age plays a huge role in how a particular wine tastes. This is no exception when it comes to the 2005 Bodegas Aalto Ribera del Duero. Bodegas Aalto's fist vintage of this wine was nine years ago. Just like this wine, their craft has gotten better with age. Check out what The Wine Advocate had to say in its 95 point review:

The 2005 Bodegas Aalto is produced from 100% Tinto Fino grapes that have an average vine age of 60 years(some as old as 90 years). After 23 months in oak barrels, the final result is a big, thick, voluptuous wine loaded with crushed blackberry, blueberry, and cinnamon spice.


Normally a wine of this caliber would sell for at least $75 a bottle. However, Gary's Wine & Marketplace is selling it for $37.99. This is the lowest price in the entire country. But that's not all. We're sweetening the deal by throwing in free shipping when you purchase six bottles or more! We can't think of a better way for you to get your hands on some great wine.

New World vs Old World: Two Great Wines From Chile and Spain

2006 Vina Perez Cruz Carmenere Reserva Limited Edition - Even better is the 2006 Carmenere Reserva Limited Edition, a deep crimson-colored wine with a superb aromatic array of scorched earth, pencil lead, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. On the palate spice, plum and chocolate notes emerge followed by a lengthy, fruit-filled, pure finish. It is an exceptional value in Carmenere.


2005 Castano Solanera Vinas Viejas - Saturated purple. Smoky raspberry and cherry on the nose, with a nice mocha quality adding complexity. Fleshy, round dark fruit liqueur flavors caress rather than pummel the palate. Gentle tannins arrive late to add structure but this is all about silky, juicy fruit.
