Took some time to open up but goodness this was good. Nose like fresh ground pepper, some cigar smoke, plum and maybe even a lil windex or ammonia, but not in a bad way. Light medium body, with gripping tannins at this age, but after some time and air they let loose their grip juuust a bit. Jammy and fruit forward finish, but still so fresh, with hints of mint, green pepper, and slight tints of tar at the end.
