title: Stinson 2011 Meritage Red (Virginia)
description: A butterscotch note hits the nose first, before fading to reveal scents of tea, leather and cedary spices. Medium to full-bodied, the succulent palate bears a supple core with a mineral edge. A flavor of dried strawberry marks the tangy finish. This is a blend of 35% Merlot, 25% Petit Verdot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Meritage
