**** — Vines — Summer 2006
Tasting Notes:
The Ironstone Vineyards Reserve Meritage is an exceptionally elegant full-bodied wine that displays aromas of berries and jam layered with mint, fresh herbs, cola and cassis. Blackberries and jam carry through to the palate with hints of vanilla and a light peppery spice followed by a delightfully smooth finish.
Food Pairings:
Executive Chef Dan Lewis: "The Bordeaux varietals that are blended to create our Meritage have both strong and soft characteristics making this an exceptional choice for a wide variety of dishes. From simple cheese plates filled with mild cheddar, Gouda and warm brie to a classic Beef Wellington, this wine is a must. It's also wonderful with a hearty beef stew, chicken in mushroom sauce or roast veal with a red wine demiglaze. Enjoy!"
Reviews:
**** (out of 5): "This boldly flavoured red is surprisingly stylish and structured. The aroma and flavour suggests a neat mix of ripe fruit character (jammy blackberry and cassis) and complexity (pepper and mint). It is a big red bursting with intensity and class." (Christopher Waters — Vines — Summer 2006)
