"Genesis Meritage is representative of the best qualities of its components: Merlot brings cherry fruit and a supple quality to the blend; Cabernet Sauvignon, power and structure; and Malbec adds depth of fruit and complexity. Flavors are of rich black raspberry, a touch of cardamom and sandalwood, and earthy cedar notes. Pair with T-bone steak topped with mushrooms and onions, beef stroganoff, lamb stew, or grilled eggplant pizza."

"The nose opens with rich sweet fruit of blackberries, raspberries, and a hint of dark cherry. At first taste you are struck by the rich creamy texture that is accompanied by lush fruit accents. It finishes with an intriguing array of exotic spices. Smooth and elegant, this wine displays an amazing sense of balance from beginning to end."
