Obviously this wine gets much better over time. Hard to believe I ranked it a 80 the first time I drank it.

Very good bottle of wine. Robust & rich with good unique flavors. Let it sit a while before drinking. I think this wine will get much better over time.

This was a good wine but I think it would not hurt for it to mature for a few years

It seemd to get better with time so I should have probably let it breathe a little longer. It had nice vanilla and berry nose and flavor.

I was disapointed as one of the other tasters indicated. Cosco's Kirkland brand usually has exceptional wines, but this one just did not live up to expectations. When I opened it my wife was drinking a $5 bottle of Woodbridge that I conpared and I think the Woodbridge was better. It did have some good fruit flavors of apple and pineapple.

This wine did nothing for me. I thought it was very average and would not buy it again. Fruit was barely noticable.
