  August 6, 2023 - Impulse Purchase @ Costco
  13.0% abv - $8
  
  Served (Pop & Pour) with Beef Tri-tip, Heirloom Potatoes and Pear Salad.
  
  Dark purplish red on the pour; opaque in the glass. Red Plum on the nose. Plum and blackberry with earthtones on the palate along with hints of tobacco and chocolate. Medium body, yet hearty and full-flavored. Subdued tannins and moderate acidity. Nice finish.
  
  Originally not impressed, with a slight unidentifiable 'whang' upon opening. Wine was much better on the second day. Highly recommend aerating and/or decanting before serving. Spouse Endorsed. I'll get more.
