Meritage is a special designation for Bordeaux-style blends made in the US. This particular blend stands out because it includes only three of the top five grape varieties used in Bordeaux blends. The term “Meritage” is derived from “Merit,” which reflects the quality of grapes, and “Heritage,” symbolizing the centuries-old tradition of wine blending. It pairs nicely with roasted meats, bold cheeses, beef stews, and chocolate desserts.
