The wine shows earth, red currants, leather, and maybe some iron/iodine. Has some tannins but they aren't obtrusive. Acidity is well balanced and supports a nice structure.
An absolute steal for $8 at Costco when you have the traditional BDX itch.

Dark core with a ruby rim. Clean aromas of stone, iodine and black cherry. Gentle mouth feel, not very lengthy. It tickles the edges of the tongue and has a nice balance of tannins and acid, with a dark fruit flavor. A little hollow and short on the finish, but not bad for the price range (7.99 at Costco).
