I admit it. I have this thing for Meritage (Ontario’s version of a “Bordeaux blend”…we just can’t call it that). With 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot – all from a great vintage in Ontario…I loved this wine.On the nose I detected cassis, vanilla, and dark chocolate. The palate seemed true to this and added more fruit notes from both red and dark fruits (red raspberry, black cherries). The tannins are already well integrated. I would likely only cellar this another 3-4 years at most, but if you wanted to break open a bottle now, it is raring to go. I thought it was $27.20
