This is one of the earlier wines from Blackmon Wines, and
this vintage red blend is still holding up quite nicely. Sourced from the Texas
Hill Country AVA, this blend of 60% Malbec, 35% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet
Sauvignon shows a garnet hue on that first pour, followed by raspberry and
black pepper right up front. After that first sip, it has a nearly full body
feel to it with notes of plum and cocoa coming through, complimented by good
acidity and just the right lingering touch of tannins for that “ahhh” moment. Being very well crafted, this wine could keep aging for a few more years. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
