Very dark ruby color. Big red fruit nose. Big entry! Overtly sweet mid-palate. There are some very fine tannins on the long finish. The structure makes the finish surprisingly dry. I loved the balance and the juxtaposition of the sweet and dry character in this wine. Nice complexity for such a young wine. Impressive! 95+ points
