There are 1,300 cases of the outstanding 2003 Artist Series Meritage, a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 12% Malbec, and 2% Petit Verdot. Its expressive aromas reveal notes of blackberries, elderberries, and cassis. Medium to full-bodied, it offers flavors reminiscent of tar, wild berries, and dark cherries in a concentrated, supple, and prolonged format.'

91 points Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine - December 1, 2005
Chateau Ste. Michelle’s better bottlings, and this is among them, display a mannerly sense of sophistication that clearly separates them from wines that are directed by blustery ripeness. As seen here, there is no sacrifice in richness or weight on the palate, and oak-enriched curranty fruit shines through at every turn. The wine is well-balanced with nominal tannins that firm without toughening, and all signs point to four or five years of graceful aging.'
4 stars Restaurant Wine - January 31, 2005
A complex, medium rich blend, which is well balanced and long on the palate, tasting of plum, spicy oak, tobacco, and cherry.
