Well refined, delicious with a homemade lasagna.

Great daily drinker! Round and soft all at the same time - nice sweet black cherry on the nose with a bit of limestone coming through too. Blueberry, graphite, and more sweet black cherry on the palate.. Nice wine for the money.

This wine is huge. Not sure when the tannin and oak are going to resolve. I find delectables average price pretty hard to believe based upon what I paid at wholesale

Good mouthfeel, we’ll balanced. Early foray into Bordeaux for us.

I'm trying to acquire a taste for Bordeaux and this particular wine is helping. Aromatically consistent with most Bordeaux's but much smoother and cleaner than other Bordeaux's. This is a bridge between Bordeaux and California Cabs.

It's not trendy to like Bordeaux but there are still great wines made there.

$21 bottle at Costco. Probably go for 35 elsewhere.
