The nose starts with bright, almost tart Morello cherries and red raspberries, then opens to a clean but lightly charred oak component. Layers of darker sweet cherries, currants, and anise fill the palate, while a licorice spiciness lingers on the tongue.In the winery, we pair this wine with a dark chocolate cherry truffle, made with tart Morello cherries. It pairs equally well with Steak au Poivre or a pork loin roast, accompanied by a hash of peppered potatoes and Granny Smith apples. 34% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Franc, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20 % Petite Verdot.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"North Gate Vineyard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42975811666144,"sku":"106414","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/north-gate-vineyard-meritage_1.jpg?v=1663888050","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/north-gate-vineyard-meritage-2015-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
