I think the prior notes aren’t doing this wine service. Found this in an Indiana liquor store and they have several more. Hopefully stored properly, because I’m going to go back and buy the rest.
In any case, this is a nice Cali Bordeaux blend. I’m giving it a higher rating because it was $45 and is great value. Plum and forest on the nose. Good mouth-feel with supple tannins on the finish. I had post pizza, drank well post dinner, but could have done extremely well with a nice strip or ribeye.
Drinking window will last as well. This could play for another 10 years

Average, a bit weak and under-concentrated and underwhelming, but no huge flaws. Score is generous. Better in its youth.

Nice Bordeaux blend. More earth qualities than fruit. Smooth silky mouthfeels. Nicely layered and slight complexity for the price point
