Meritage

Meritage Wine Details
Price:

Description: Meritage, a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot (the classic Bordeaux varieties), is a complex red wine with a moderate tannin backbone. The Cab Franc contributes the rich black cherry character, the Cab Sauv has a black pepper quality, and the Merlot adds an earthy or flinty tone. Oak aging adds a spicy vanilla overtone. Serve with red meats, game, or strongly flavored tomato dishes.
