A soft, complex, dark-colored, smooth yet still intense Bordeaux-style wine, delightful on the palate with superb balance.
Allure is a wine best used with soft, complex foods. Savor it as a solitary experience or pair with Lasagna or Osso Bucco - whatever you choose - you win!
The wine is delightful on the palate thanks to its power, richness, body, and concentration. Blessed with superb balance, *Allure* Meritage displays an incredible combination of power, delicacy, ripeness, and freshness.
Complete and complex, it is above all smooth. Its complex bouquet will blossom over time while the wine's intrinsic freshness and power will undoubtedly remain unchanged.
The 2017 harvest wrapped up following summer heat spurts and a growing season that saw significant rain throughout the state ending a five-year drought. Temperatures cooled in mid-September, slowing the harvest pace and allowing red grapes to ripen gradually producing good quality for the 2017 vintage. While October wildfires in Napa and Sonoma made headlines, vineyards and wineries were not significantly affected.
