What is Merlot?
Smooth. Approachable. Great with food. What’s not to love about Merlot? During the early 2000’s, wine lovers actually found a lot to dislike. Mass produced bottles of Merlot in the United States often lacked flavor and nuance, earning the varietal pariah status in some circles. Paul Giamatti’s line in Sideway says it all: “If anyone orders Merlot, I’m leaving.” Over a decade later, the dislike of Merlot has faded. Winemakers are producing great bottles of this wine, which is smooth and enjoyable. It may not be as trendy as Pinot Noir or Cabernet Sauvignon. But, if you want to relax and enjoy a red with dinner, reach for a Merlot.
