Deep ruby with medium viscosity legs (13.8% ABV).  The nose has got candied dark red fruit aromas with ripe blackberry and a touch of vanilla and cocoa.  The palate is dry with medium acidity and medium (+) tannins that are a touch green.  Ripe black and dark red fruit with some oak influence are noted on the medium to full body.  The finish offers a bit of black tea with the astringency to go with it alongside blackberry and candied cherry.  It’s a medium length affair that I’m enjoying.  88 points- I cannot remember the price I paid at Costco.  Pair this red blend with Hangar steaks and drink till 2026.  Salut….
