Meritage – 2017; Llano Estacado Winery; Lubbock, Texas

If you are seeking an affordable Bordeaux style wine, this Texas made one will hit the spot quite well. Though not disclosed, the blends from this winery Meritage labels have typically been Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. It definitely needs time to breathe for maximum enjoyment, so have patience. Dark fruit aromas come out the most for this red blend followed by a touch of plum and raspberry. It does express some good earthy tones and a bit of leather. It is well balanced and smooth, so this wine should be an enjoyable one for your protein feast. Enjoy!
