About the Wine:

Exclusively selected from over 360 barrels, this select blend of 64 barrels represents the best that we have to offer. The larger portion of Cabernet Sauvignon gives a strong presence of peppery fruit and earthy, herbal nuances. The Merlot adds a rich texture of berry fruit and rose petals. The Petit Verdot gives this wine a rich color and intense depth of herbal and berry characters. The Cabernet Franc and Malbec finish the blend with a nice synergy of delicate fruit and bold tannins. The equilibrium of oak and grape character is in dynamic harmony. Undoubtedly, this is a wine that will age and continue to progress for the next three to five years, while still being appealing and drinkable now.


About the Vineyard:


Our Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blocks at Wild Horse Peak are the highest vineyards (altitudinally speaking) and, frankly, the best vineyards in all of Southern California. This is no modest statement. And certainly, our Meritage is no modest wine. Only the very best lots of grapes from the various Wild Horse Peak blocks were painstakingly tasted, analyzed, and then blended to create this dark temptress of the grape.
