Trump Meritage MonticelloRed Blend | 13.5% ABV | 750 mL | Monticello AVA, Virginia | Bordeaux-Style Blend
Process & Profile
Trump Meritage Monticello is a Bordeaux-style red blend crafted from estate-grown grapes in Virginia’s Monticello AVA. The blend typically includes Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, vinified to highlight the balance, depth, and structure of a traditional Right Bank Bordeaux. The grapes are hand-harvested, cold-soaked to extract color and aroma, and aged in French oak barrels for over a year to refine the tannins and integrate the flavors. The result is a smooth, medium-bodied red wine that showcases Virginia’s ability to produce elegant, Old World-inspired blends with a modern edge.

Nose: Ripe red currant, blackberry, and plum with hints of cocoa, cedar, and vanilla spice.
Palate: Medium-bodied and balanced with layers of black cherry, tobacco leaf, and earthy minerality.
