Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ripe fruit and new oak combine to produce a wine of power, if not of subtlety. A Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend of Bordeaux varieties, it blasts the palate with blackberry jam, cassis, chocolate and caramelized new oak flavors, and the acidity is soft and mild.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Cabernet-based Meritage also contains a significant amount of Malbec. It’s a big, mouth-filling, dry blend, young in chewy, hard tannins, with a stubborn green edge to the cherry-berry flavors. Needs age, but may not have the balance for the long haul. Drink now–2010.
