All about Merlot

Merlot is a varietal wine that contains 13.5% alcohol, but can be higher particularly when it is cultivated in a warmer climate such as Chile or Australia. Merlot does have a plummy taste with notes of chocolate which makes it smooth and very easy to sip.

Types of Merlot

White Merlot is a raspberry-fragranced wine created from red grapes in a parallel way to White Zinfandel. Pink juice from the skins is fermented and they are considered as rosé wines. Merlot Blanc, in the meantime, is a grape selection that is a cross in the middle of Merlot and Folle Blanche but must not be mistaken with Merlot Gris, a light-skinned alteration of Merlot.
