2023 vintage. Costco. Meh - a bit too mellow and sweet for my tastes

Dark cherry, tobacco, black tea, cranberry, stewed fig, cola, and oak. Moderate plus acid and tannin. High alcohol. Tight and young until it opens up. Recommend decanting.

An ok Malbec - Cab Franc blend. This blend held back the Malbec so not that distinctive. Fine as a dinner wine. July 2019.
