Description
As a standout within the Stony Lonesome Wine Cellars collection, this Meritage is a sophisticated tribute to the great Bordeaux-style blends of the world. Crafted with a high percentage of Cabernet Franc, it showcases the exceptional potential of Seneca Lake’s unique microclimate, where deep waters protect the vines and allow for a long, slow ripening. This wine balances power with a serious, age-worthy structure, making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate the elegance and depth of a truly well-made dry red.
