Second bottle from Costco Christmas box. Decent Bordeaux, but with strong bitter note, more usual for Médoc. Makes this wine less pleasant than other three of the box.
Was OK with BBQ chicken pizza.

2021 Patrick Lesec Côtes du Rhône Villages
Another good Côtes du Rhône from Costco. Very subtle. Subtle chokeberry note, subtle leather note, just a hint of tobacco, almost no sugar. Very pleasant overall. Already bought more.
Was very good with grilled bison burgers.
2019 Baracan
Third bottle from Costco Christmas box. Good. Strong black currant note, spice, almost no sugar. Very subtle bitter note, more usual for Médoc, but aerator makes it almost disappear.
Was very good with BBQ chicken pizza.
2019 Château Haut Landon
Last bottle from Costco Christmas box. Nice Bordeaux. Mixed berries, old leather. Not very strong, 13% alcohol, which is good for a change. No sugar.
Was very good with sous vide tuna.
