2009 arrowhead red meritage(arrowhead spring vineyards)

Well this was another NYS red wine surprise! The first surprise was it was unfiltered and a bit of sediment in the first glass.Not a big issue though. And as it turned out, no more sediment in the rest of the bottle. Nice nose and palette on this one, even with some nice tannins on the back end that added to the nice finish! A re buy for sure!

2008 Ravines meritage

Finally a NYS wine that has a finish! This was a very nice wine. Not cheap by NY standards at $20, but well worth it.A rebuy for sure.

2008 salmon run meritage

Nice nose on this one, but that was about it.Not much on the tongue, and no finish at all. A pass for sure.

2009 glenora meritage

This wine has a nice nose and mid-pallette, but as is typical for new york state reds, it had little or no finish. I would prolly try something else before returning to this one, especially for the price, almost $19.
