Pretty solid find at Costco. Some bright berry favors with a bit of heat and smooth tannins. Weekday drinker.

Cali Syrah all the way. Big fruit, caramel, vanilla, fruit compote, med acidity and quite smooth. Made well, and would please the right audience.

Starting with the inexpensive first during social distancing. Have a feeling I'll be moving into the gems in a few weeks if this California coronavirus continues. Little combo of red and black fruits, not a lot of acidity or tannins. Easy drinker for difficult times.

Nicely balanced. Blueberry & cassis. Not too peppery. Lots of oak on the finish.
