WA 95pt Ribera del Duero under $40--Free Shipping with Purchase of Six Bottles or More

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.

Price: $37.99

It's a wonderful thing when we here at Gary's can honestly say we've been looking forward to receiving a shipment of a particular wine. This can easily be said of the 2007 Chalone Vineyards Pinot Noir Monterey. Since we sampled this Pinot from the barrel, we can easily say this is the best vintage since 2004. It could even be better.

James Laub from Wine Spectator had much praise to say about the 2007 California Pinot Noir, including "I've really enjoyed many of the 2007s. They are ripe, fleshy, balanced and consistently very good to outstanding". He also said "the 2007 vintage is shaping up as one of the best years ever for California Pinot Noir".

So not only is this Pinot from one of the best vintages in recent memory, it's also ON SALE! Normally $19.99, Gary's is selling this beauty for $12.09. That's 40% off the original price.

A Pinot under $15 that customers raved about: 2008 Cool Woods Pinot Gris


2008 Cool Woods Pinot Gris

As you can probably tell, Summer is in full effect here at Gary's Wine and Marketplace. We're keeping the good times coming with this 2008 Cool Woods Pinot Gris. This bottle was a hit at last week's wine tasting at all three of our locations. Combine that with the $12.99 price tag and you've got yourself a great deal on a wine that seems like it was custom-made for the season.

Wine buyer Jon Visser described it as having "great mouthfeel with lots of white peach and nectarine fruit. Good richness but not at all sweet. Well balanced with some good acidity integrated in there with a long finish."

Also, check out Gary Fisch and Maggie Fox tasting the Cool Woods in the video below:

33% off WA 89 pt 2005 Spottswoode Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon


2005 Spottswoode Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon


Back in May 2009, we selected this Cabernet as one of our Premiere Selections. And for good reason too. This Cab comes from the same vineyard as the 96 point 2005 Spottswoode Cab. Delicious aromas of dark roasted coffee and brambly black fruit give way to a mouthful of ripe plums, chocolate and dark cherries on the palate. At 33% off, this is a great deal!

Robert Parker 89 Points

The 2005 Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits more restraint and delineation. It seems like a cooler climate wine compared to the more opulent 2004. It comes down to a matter of personal preference, but I liked the showiness and sensuality of the 2004, whereas structuralists and acid lovers will probably prefer the 2005. I would not be surprised to see the 2005 last longer, and actually move ahead of the 2004 in terms of quality in 4-5 years.
