A truly stunning wine! Even at its young age, this wine showcased balance and smoothness. Deep purple color in the glass. There are aromas of blackberry, Marionberry, and a hint of blue berry on the nose. From the first sip onward The wine impressed more and more. Flavors of ripe blackberry and spice are married with the perfect balance of Oak and tobacco. The tannins are velvety smooth and enhance the rich, full body. If forced to find a fault with this wine, I would I would say there was a slight bit of alcohol "hotness" on the finish. This is most likely attributed to the young age of the wine and will disappear with a year or two of aging. Nevertheless, that is a minor issue and could be completely overlooked by many people. Even though I think this wine will improve with age, I still think it is pretty near perfect now, so I'm giving it five hearts, and adding it to my favorites. Well played, Mr. Groom.
