Lovely spices, not too rich but still full bodied and bright. Great price.

A lot of dark fruits on the nose, good balance on the palate, medium low tannin, good wine.

Medium tannin. First taste.
After an hour or so, it opens up with more cab and structure.
Value for money ....hell yes. Had it with Pepperoni pizza and it was excellent.
Probably wait a few years and try again

Didn’t like it as much this time as before. Still very good wine at 14.99 at Costco. Would get again. Good aromas and has a nice spice to it. Not as good the 2nd night.

Pretty good even without much breathing time (I think within 15-20 mins it was very drinkable). Price is good for what it is and great for a weeknight chill out option.
