RESERVE MERITAGE 2005

You may have been wondering, what with the 2005 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon already sold out, and the 2005 Butler’s Grant Vineyard Reserve Merlot disappearing quickly…where is the 2005 Reserve Meritage?  Well the wait is over.  After some extended bottle aging and the departure of the last bottle of 2004 Reserve Meritage,  there’s a new kid on the block.

The 2005 Reserve, benefiting from a hot growing season that produced rich, ripe Bordeaux reds varieties, as well 30 months aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels, demonstrates the purpose of Creekside’s Reserve Meritage program:  “To create a synergistic wine that embodies the strengths of each component while also bringing something new and exciting to the table is no small task; a true Meritage is much greater than the sum of its parts.”

We believe that this blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, all sourced from the stellar St. David’s Bench sub-appellation, does just that.
