When blending three red wines, balance is so important, and this one found a good balance from start to finish. <strong>Nose:</strong> Black cherry, currant, and cassis. <strong>Taste:</strong> ripe red fruits hit the palate, followed by raspberry, black licorice, plum, and even a hint of tobacco. Mild tannins and good acidity. Smooth finish. This Meritage is good right when served with a meal. Cellar until at least the summer of 2010 and this one should be a knock out.
