Having had the wonderful 2016 Kirkland Oakville Signature cabs, we laid in a few of these Napa cabs. They did not live up to hopes: after a few sips, this bottle was consigned to be boiled alive in a Coq Au Vin, and we now see at least two more wine sauce dishes in our future.

Not sure what wine the other note writers were drinking, but my bottle was a nice weeknight quaffer and great value. Not great, and certainly simple, but tasted good with no off flavors. Wouldn't serve this at a dinner party, but at $13, great for a couple weeknights.

poor quality cabernet. Kirkland usually indicates Costco good quality, but this wine is the exception - it is just bad!

Young and lacking complexity on first night. Good, but nothing great.
