2006 Ridge Zinfandel York Creek: Lowest price in the country AND free shipping on a case!

2006 Ridge Zinfandel York Creek

Ridge is a very big name in the wine business. They are most well-known for producing some of the best California Cabernet and Chardonnay in the world. But of course, to get the best, it's going to cost you, right? Well, not here at Gary's. While most retailers are selling this at anywhere from $25-30 per bottle, we're selling it at a cool $19.99. But that's not all. We're also throwing in free shipping when you purchase a case. Top it off with a 90 point rating from the International Wine Cellar and you've got yourself an amazing deal. Perfect for your next barbeque, this wine won't be in stock for long.

Reviews: Josh Raynolds, IWC 90 Points

Deep ruby with a bright rim. Raspberry, cherry and cinnamon pn the nose. Brighter than the Paso Robles bottling, with nervier red berry flavors and notes of vanilla and bitter chocolate. medium-bodied zinfandel with fully absorbed tannins and impressive finishing lift. Sexy wine, and drinking well right now.

Reviews: Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar, 92 Points

Light salmon-skin color. Pungent, mineral-driven bouquet of redcurrant, blood orange, jasmine, anise and spices. Dry, focused and taut on entry, gaining flesh with air and offering nervy red berry and citrus flavors. Musky herbs add depth and chalky minerality lends bite to the long, brisk finish. This wine's energy is impressive. I'd love to see this with a fresh sheep's milk cheese.

RP 96 and ST 94 2006 Dominus Estate Red Wine from Napa Valley



2006 Dominus Napa Valley Proprietary Red PreSale

It's June, and that means Summer is just around the corner. That means sun and barbecues. This Meritage is perfectly suited for times like those. With a 96 point rating from Robert Parker and a 94 point rating from Stephen Tanzer, it's a surefire winner for that dinner party. Arrival is expected in July, just in time for the best days of Summer.

Robert Parker 96 points:

"There are 6,500 cases of the superb 2006 Dominus (91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot). Its dark plum/purple color is accompanied by aromas and flavors of truffles, forest floor, black cherries, black currants, and Asian spices. One of the finest wines of the vintage, it is complete, full-bodied, and seamlessly built with beautiful ripe tannins, low acidity, and a luscious, layered mouthfeel. The aromatics are even more evolved and complex than the 2005's. The 2006 should drink well for 20-25 years."

Stephen Tanzer 94 points:
Bright red-ruby. Lovely floral lift contributes precision to the aromas of raspberry, rose petal and licorice. Sweet, high-pitched and sharply delineated; velvety but not thick. There's a juicy quality to the ripe red fruit, mineral and graphite flavors, not to mention a firm underlying spine, that promises a long and positive evolution in bottle. Quite young but not austere, finishing with building tannins and lovely lift. The lingering perfume of red fruits, pepper, flowers and licorice is unusually complex. A really superb 2006, seemingly every bit as good as the sensational 2005.
