The 2006 Cocina Blend is 60% Malbec, 20% Bonarda, and 20% Syrah, was sourced from three regions of Mendoza, and aged for 10 months in 70% French and 30% American oak, 20% new. Purple-colored, it offers notes of cedar, spice box, pencil lead, blueberry, and black cherry. On the palate gamy notes emerge to accompany the sweet fruit. Easy-drinking and seamless, this tasty wine can be enjoyed over the next 5 years. All four of the La Posta wines are outstanding values. - Jay Miller Wine Advocate 90 Points This interesting and tasty blend of Malbec, Syrah and Bonardo starts with enticing dark berry and coffee aromas. The surprisingly complex and full flavored palate features flavors of cherries, blackberries, blueberries and a hint of espresso followed by a long juicy finish. The Wine Buyer 91 Points
