2010 Meritage, Napa Valley
2010 Meritage - Napa Valley
The 2010 Meritage is a masterful blend that brings together the best of Bordeaux-style varietals from Napa Valley. On the nose, it opens with enticing aromas of blackberry, dark plum, and currant, interwoven with hints of vanilla, leather, and a touch of cedar.
The palate is rich and layered, featuring flavors of ripe black cherries, cassis, and dark chocolate, complemented by subtle notes of anise and espresso. This full-bodied wine is supported by well-integrated tannins, offering a velvety texture and a lingering finish that showcases a hint of toasted oak and spice.
Perfectly aged, this Meritage is ready to be enjoyed now and will continue to develop with further cellaring. Pair it with grilled steaks, braised short ribs, or a hearty mushroom risotto to enhance its complex, savory profile.
