Wonderful wine, aged nicely for drinking now (5 years). Well rounded with lots of red fruit and a long slow finish. Hope to see this again to purchase more.

30 min decant. Big plummy nose. Drinks like a good Valpolicella. Ripe red berries, ripe dark plum, and milk chocolate. Noticeable oak but not a distraction. Ripe style with high alcohol, but not flabby. Med-low tannin. Med-long finish with good intensity.
Not my cup of tea but of good quality and good value at $16. Give it a go if you like riper styles. Not suitable for aging. Drink by 2025.

A classic from Eric Solomon. Lots of upfront fruit in a bone dry foundation. Haven't seen too many Solomon offerings at Costco. Definitely hope to see more.
