2006 MERITAGE

Tightly-wound, with seductive notes of cedar, toast and warm spice derived from the wine’s aging in fine oak barrels. Fruit aromas of cassis and damson plum. The flavors are deep and brooding hidden beneath a core of fine-grained tannins. This is an age-worthy Bordeaux-style blend, and showcases the ability of Paso Robles to produce world-class wine given the appropriate grape growing and winemaking conditions.

Recommended Food Pairing:
This wine demands beef, preferably a five ounce pan-seared filet mignon with a red wine-gorgonzola reduction, roasted root vegetables and blood orange wedges.
