Ok so I opened a bottle of this tonight. It's been in the bottle a week short of 3 months. It's very good. Alot better than I was expecting for my very 1st kit. I'm not very good at specifc tasting notes, I just know what I like so bare with me. It was quite fruity & very smooth. It could've had just a bit more oak, that's a personal preference. For the price I think it's a very good kit. I'd definitely recommend it. Hope you all enjoy it too.
