I had an eye exam at Costco today, and bought this. 2 hours of air time. It's very sweaty and savory. Not a great Brunello, but it's very good.

This is another wine that doesn't exist. Duckhorn "Heritage" Cabernet Sauvignon. It's not on their website, it's not on the internet anywhere. It's good.

Wow! Amazing for $13. Argentina Cabs can either thrill or fall flat. This is very good. Trying to get some steaks on the grill before the big storm rolls through.

This wine is a guilty pleasure. 97 degrees outside and this does the job.

This wine doesn't scream Napa, but it's very nice. And a bargain. Sharp acid cuts through soft berries and tasteful oak influences. This is one to try again with some marbled steak.

Meaty. It takes a minute for the fruit to rise out of the spice and earthy stuff. Very enjoyable.

A little bit of Brett, but nice flavors once that dissipated. Not a heavy Amarone, it's bright and juicy. Enjoyable

It's been 8 years since my last trip to Africa. This is what we would buy in the supermarket. Cheap, dry and fruity, and so refreshing.

Well, here is a wine that Google doesn't even know about. Claimstaker California Cabernet Sauvignon, 2023, produced by Caymus Vineyards.
I think this is what happens when a wine producer is trying to hit break even for the year? Take some various grapes that may have gone into higher end wines, rebrand it, slap $17 on the price tag. Maybe? Anyone know anything?
It's a very true-to-Wagner wine: plush, juicy, oaky, and deep. I do think it's good for this price.
