Tasting Notes

”The 2004 Artist Series Meritage is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot from the Columbia Valley. Each variety contributes a special attribute to the blend, resulting in a complex wine with aromas of black cherry, plum and cedar, with elegant tannins and rich concentrated flavors and a lingering finish.”
-Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker

The Art of Wine
Chateau Ste. Michelle’s Artist Series Meritage red wine celebrates the inspired collaboration between artisan winemaking and fine art. This 13th vintage of Artist Series Meritage showcases the work of Bobbie Burgers from British Columbia. Bobbie studied in France and returns often to recapture the life, light and spirit of Provence in her painting. Her powerful botanicals and luscious still lifes are large scale, intensely alive landscapes that focus on sumptuous color and wild movement.
