Columbia Valley
2001 Artist Series Red Wine
The Artist Series Meritage is a wine built for aging by carefully blending the top lots of the vintage for power, elegance and structure. Deep and concentrated, the dense blackberry, fresh raspberry and sweet mint aromas carry over on the palate. A higher percentage of Malbec was incorporated in the 2001 blend than in previous vintages, giving the wine a distinct bright, lush mouthfeel.
