Lyeth 2012 Meritage (Sonoma County)

Country: US /
Variety: Meritage California
Winery: Lyeth / Sonoma County

This wine has a foundation of 57% Merlot, followed by almost equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec, then smaller percents of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Perfumed, it expresses itself in tight, chewy tannins before revealing cedar, pencil shavings and cranberry in a medium-bodied package.
