Although this isn't a fruit bomb, it is sweeter with stewed fruit notes that isn't well balanced by acidity. Mild tannins. Heady nose. Blackberry, cassis, plum on the palate. Full bodied. Perfect BBQ wine. Would repurchase at the Costco pricing of 19.99, if I was lucky enough to find it again.

If you like a solid Napa cab you will like this bottle, if you can find it anywhere. Thirty dollars per bottle.This bottle is equal to ,if not better than the “ expensive cabs “ I have bought.

2016 was a great year for Napa and this might be the best representation I've experienced anywhere near this price point. Might be the perfect drinking window...

Big and full of dark berries, good balance. Give the wine some more time if you want it to be in top form. Decanting is recommended for a few years
