15-20 minutes after opening it's getting wider and more sandy. Balanced juice. Integrated flavors... some burnt ash and tobacco coming into play. Roses and Carnations at 30 minutes. Lavender sustains... some light citrus. No burn to the nose, gentle. Charcoal sandiness underlying the fruit. Gets more mellow and aromatic with an orange twist. Center of the tongue, very interesting barrel. Contemplative. My style. Dry white oak?
