2008 Artist Series Meritage

Columbia Valley

“Artist Series is the ultimate sculpted wine created by blending amazing Washington fruit. For the first time, the Artist Series blend includes all five Bordeaux grape varieties of Cabernet Sauvignon (51%) Merlot (36%), Cabernet Franc (6%), Malbec (6%), and Petit Verdot (1%). The result is a multi-layered, complex and harmonious wine. Nearly all of the fruit came from our estate vineyards. Canoe Ridge Estate fruit contributes elegance, structure and fine-grained tannins while Cold Creek vineyard lends concentrated, old vine intensity.”
