Had the 2018 in June of 2021 with steak while enjoying an evening on the deck. A better food wine than sipping wine. Light fruits with hints of spice. The oak added a gentle sweetness throughout the tasting. Last glass after dinner brought out the tannic dryness at the end. Still enjoyed this one. Think it was a Costco wine.
