Didn't come across on the nose either uh Or very mildly and there's this nice Kind of leaky tobacco note fruits are Are certainly front and center expansive Really good acidity tannins are are There they're firm they're chewy but They're they're smoothing out they're Silky you know it makes me realize That's why probably it'll benefit from a Good 20-30 minutes of decanting because There's some some things that are coming Out of the palette that weren't on the Nose and the tannins could use just a Little smoothing out but this is a Really tremendous value it's a Best Buy Wine Enthusiast Really something you're only going to Find here at Wine Express so uh Make sure you grab it while we have it Because there's unfortunately not a lot Of it made so cheers enjoy
