Licorice, dark fruits and tobacco. Structured w firm tannins -- this can definitely use decanting --- improved considerably w time in the glass. Had it with pasta, but think meat would be a better match for the tannins. Could also probably use more time in the bottle.

#garyveewineclub licorice, cherries, and some dark fruits with firm tannins and lingering acidity. Quite fruit-forward on the palate. The oak is unbalanced, but pairs very well with meaty tomato sauce pastas.

Not my style at all. So dry, almost bitter. $14.99 from Costco

Great find at Costco. Good structure, lots of ripe fruit and acid balance. Great with pasta and Ragu. Decant it for an hour and you will be pleased.
