Meritage
United States
Red • 36% Petit Verdot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Cabernet Franc, 13% Merlot
- Tasting Notes
- ColorVery dark opaque garnet with a very dark purple hue. Lighter purple rim
- NoseChocolate covered cherries, cassis, blackberries and vanilla
- FlavorMedium tannins and medium acidity, Dried cherries, blackberries and a smooth mouthfeel. The fruit is a little more subdued, making this feel like an old world wine. The tannins are a bit drying but the juicy mouthfeel (from the cool weather cilmate acidity) balances both perfect.y
