winemaker's notes:

The 2006 Meritage is a great follow-up to the delicious 2005 vintage. It has a similar aroma profile; blackberry, black licorice, chocolate and rich Bing cherry. An upfront vanilla sweetness is noticed in the aroma which pulls all these attributes together. The palate has juicy cherry, cassis and coffee tones. The wine finishes with a fullness provided by ripe, rich tannins and a lasting finish full of flavor.

critical acclaim:

"Feathered garnet hue. Forward, attractive aromas of raspberry, cranberry, black licorice and chocolate. Very crisp and direct with focused cherry fruit and toasted oak impressions. A driving, nervy cabernet-based wine that finishes on a fresh, lively note."

  Disappointing Meritage - 4/2/2010
I would not buy this wine again
I had great hopes for this because I love a good Meritage, but it turned out to be thin, sharp and lacking flavor. Maybe an off-bottle, but just seemed to be falling apart rather quickly.

 I would buy this wine again
Absolutely delicious. I went in search of a Syrah recommended by a friend and ended up with this instead. A nice find that I will buy again and again.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
