2012 David Arthur Meritaggio Napa image

A blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot, 3% petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc in the blend this year. Meritaggio is the brainchild of the Long Brothers. Wanting to fulfill his desire of producing a fine Meritage blend, David set out to find clones of the five classic Bordeaux varietals. On his travels, he came across Sangiovese, which stole the spotlight from any Malbec he had ever tasted. Bob had the brilliance to name the wine, Meritaggio in honor of Sangiovese's Italian heritage. This 2012 vintage offers up a good amount of dark cherry and currant berry fruit with dark earth and spices, a very complex bouquet of aromas. Juicy red and black berry fruit onthe tongue, fine tannins and maybe a bit of a Tuscan flaire with the freshness of the Sangiovese showing at the end. finish 45) Excellent +
