Great blend in the $15 range. Dark fruits and medium acidity. Let breathe for a few hours at the minimum for best results. — 7 years ago

Best accidental Costco find ever. Just picked up a bottle cause it was being discontinued and it is great! Slightly above average acidity, and a little sweeter than a standard cab, but really amazing it is totality! — 7 years ago
