Our Meritage Red Wine Blend highlights the wealth of grape growing in Napa Valley. The Cabernet Sauvignon is the main component of this blend and adds bold dark fruit flavors as well as layers of intense complexity and structure. The Malbec and Merlot soften and round out the blend, with brighter fruit and lower tannin levels. The Cabernet Franc adds a firm backbone with juicy acidity. On the nose, the aromas are cassis, sandalwood, and clove. The flavors deliver notes of ripe blackberry, maple syrup and dark cherry. The tannins are broad, layered, and smooth. The finish is rich and elegant.
A sturdy, complex and perfumed blend that showcases the spiciness of new-barrel-aging and the flavors of red Bordeaux-style grapes. Fine-grained tannins and great texture support as deep, delicious black cherries and blackberries expand on the palate and linger on the finish. Drink now or hold.
Here's What We Thought:
Rich and bold, this Meritage bursts with blackberry, cassis, and a hint of clove, wrapped in smooth, velvety tannins. It pairs perfectly with a grilled ribeye, garlic‑roasted potatoes, or even a hearty mushroom risotto for a cozy dinner night.
