Top Notes For

Solid SMG blend thats on the lighter and delicate side. Very soft red and black fruits and more earth, game, and cigar ash forward. Wishing for a little more concentration and a little less noticeable oak. Good value. Day 2 much more generous and lifted nose and palate, oak has resided quite a bit. More impressed w/ the 13.5% abv and overall balance.

Taking this to a BYOB restaurant for dinner, will rate later - this is a great wine, rich and textural in taste but not too heavy
