A Red Meritage is a blend of two or more of the red "noble" Bordeaux varieties — Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot and the rarer St. Macaire, Gros Verdot and Carmenère. If the blend includes any other grape variety, it is, by definition, not a Meritage. Also, to qualify as a Meritage, no single grape variety can make up more than 90% of the blend.

Winexpert’s 3 Continents Meritage combines Petit Verdot from Australia, Cabernet Sauvignon from California and Merlot from Chile to make a unique, globe-spanning vision of the quality a wine of the best varieties can truly possess.

The 3 Continents Meritage will only be available in small quantities for a limited time, so don’t miss this rare opportunity to stock your cellar with this fabulous wine.

Aromas of bright black cherries and blackcurrant with soft notes of licorice, hints of cedar and herbs accented by a touch of mocha and vanilla complement rich flavours of chocolate dipped black fruit and notes of sweet oak. Structured, ripe tannins are followed by a long, fruit-driven finish.
