title: Newsome-Harlow 2005 Meritage (Calaveras County)
description: This is almost the anti-Napa Bordeaux blend. It's drier and edgier than your typical North Coast Cab, and much less tannic, with a sweet herb edge to the flavors of cherries, red and black currant, plums, tangerine zest, licorice and cloves. Try this polished wine with anything calling for a medium-bodied red.
