Kunde 2004 202 Meritage (Sonoma Valley)

Country: US / 202
Variety: Meritage California
Winery: Kunde / Sonoma Valley

A new bottling from Kunde, and one of their most successful reds ever. A Cabernet-Merlot blend, it shows earthy, tobacco-edged flavors of cherries, raspberries, blackberries, carob, vanilla and cedar. It turns away from the current overripe style in favor of Bordeaux-style balance and elegance. Best now through 2008.
