Merlot Wines sold at Geerlings & Wade |
|
| In French the word Merlot means "young blackbird," referencing the grape's beautiful dark-blue color. Much of the wine world blends Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon or Cabernet Franc. But, on its own, Merlot grapes ripen early, have lower tannins and higher sugar levels than Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot tends to be softer with slightly higher alcohol. High-quality Merlot is medium to dark red in color, with rich fruity characteristics such as black currant, cherry, and mint. Merlot wines are more supple than Cabernet Sauvignons, allowing them to be enjoyed earlier. Generally, Merlot does not age as long as Cabernet Sauvignons.
