Meritage – 2016 – 57% merlot, 19% cab franc, 18% petite Verdot, 5% cab sauv and 1% Malbec. Dry, very nice flavor. Hard to tell the nose since we’re drinking out of plastic cups. Kelly thinks it would be a great dinner wine $53
2016 Nebbiolo- 100% Nebbiolo grapes. That’s really nice – and Kelly said that! A little spicy but not peppery spicy. Another Kelly quote. He’s on it today! $68
Both of the above are governors cup wines
2016 petite Verdot- silver medal – 85% petite Verdot, 9% merlot, 6% cab franc – interesting. I’m not that crazy about it. Kelly said sour, tart apples w some sort of fruit. Ah, says he, tart cherries too. Not sweet. Neither of us were fond of that one
