April 17, 2011 - Made mostly of Merlot, this Middle Ridge Meritage is especially smooth. The addition of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot give it a complex, robust structure. Rich aromas of black cherries and blackberries abound, accented by hints of spice and tobacco. As the wine opens up, a touch of vanilla and licorice unfold. On the tip of the tongue, you’ll notice a sweetness that comes from aging in a combination of French and American oak for 19 months. Enjoy this wine with steak, grilled pork chops, barbecue chicken, or veal chops with mushrooms. It even goes great with pizza!
