a lot better than previous vintage: #costcowines dark fruit, spice, dried herbs, some licorice, tangy and juicy, kitchen sink blend, med bodied, very supple tannins and modest finish. — a day ago

Scored this on a closeout and rolled the dice: spectacular presentation - still inky dense full stuffing, brooding reminded me of higher end Meritage blends from Napa back when I could afford them. Just tons of fruit but all the pretty accents like vanilla & spice, cassis & cocoa, licorice & cigar box, kaleidoscope of fruit all packaged well, balanced, structured, regal w/persistent finish. Long life ahead — 12 days ago

last had the 2020, and this is equally badass: so absolutely spot on, about as good as SB gets from a winery that only cranks out high quality wines. Crystalline, seamless, regal - IYKYK — 10 days ago
