Inspired by the European travels of Robert Mondavi,this Meritage blend
is rich and potent, yet elegant and complex. It is a collage of the five
classic Bordeaux red varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec,
Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. In the glass, it offers lavish dark plum, black
cherry, and blackberry aromas along with a velvety texture and succulent
mid-palate flavors. Its finish is impressively long and enhanced by wellintegrated
tannins. A superb match for hearty, richly flavored foods such
as grilled rib eye or porterhouse steak, lamb chops, osso bucco, and
flavorful cheeses, this Meritage turns any meal into a special occasion.
