90 points Wine Spectator: “A pronounced graphite aroma introduces this finely wrought, chiseled Champagne. Lemon verbena, ginger and spice notes weigh in, and the finish is lingering, if tart. Drink now through 2010.
2006 La Posta Cocina Blend
BevMo Price: Doesn’t carry…due to limited production
Carpe Vino Price: $14.25/bottle

60% Malbec, 20% Syrah, 20% Bornada (similar characteristics to Barbera)
This blend impresses you right from the start. Aromas of red cherries and raspberries are infused with mocha and spice hints that give up the secret for what’s about to come. Your first sip washes broadly across your palate like a flood of sweet, fresh fruit and the viscous mouth feel keeps the flavors lingering for a while. The hints of baking spice and some oak keep the fruit flavors fresh and lively. This is a wine that you’ll want to stack up in your wine rack (or closet) for any occasion. Great all by itself or with all your favorite red wine foods like burgers, ribs, lamb chops and even pizza.
2007 Innocent Bystander Pinot Noir (Australia)
BevMo Price: Doesn’t carry…due to limited production
Carpe Vino Price: $15.99/bottle (Regular retail is over $20)
Carpe Vino Wine Club Price: $14.39/bottle ($12.23/bottle case discount)
This is one of the best imported Pinots that I have tasted in quite some time, and for under 20 bucks it is one of the best I have ever tasted. Though Pinot Noir is one of the most expensive grapes on the market to cultivate, the idea behind Innocent Bystander is to produce great value, food friendly wines that are not your run of the mill varietal blends. Taking fruit from various sources in Central Victoria, the team at Innocent Bystander is inspired to utilize and showcase the natural qualities of each region with their unique blends. This wine does not overwhelm with huge concentration and alcohol, rather it is a breath-of-fresh-air kind of wine, with elegant cherry aromatics and fruit that focuses on balance and acidity rather than over the-top ripeness. It is a great food wine and a considerable value, too!
