This one is just a steal for the price. Nose with Mainly black fruit nose, plum, blackberry, etc. Well- structured and balanced merlot based wine. Drank this for 2 days. Guess it reaches its apex at second day, getting more fruitiness and softness. Definitely gonna buy this again.

(9/29/20) The nose on this bottle, like my last about a year ago, was subdued but very nice all the same. It was still primary, with dark fruits, but there was also some of the softening that comes with a little age. The palate seemed a touch austere but still had good fruit, concentration, and balance, as well as a racy vein of acidity that gave the wine a very long finish. The tannins, although ripe, were somewhat drying and could still use a little time to soften; 14.5% abv (***+/16/92)
Day 4: After four days under vacuum seal in the fridge, the nose is deeper and more nuanced, and the wine is much softer. Some of the intensity is gone, perhaps, but overall, it’s a better tasting experience than it was on PnP.
