 Tasted by surlemur on 9/29/2023 & rated 87 points: Intense nose, some cherry, some herbal notes. Intense, but a bit harsh on the palate. Remarkable structure, fairly tannic. Good, but needs some more time. (49 views)

Merlot

Merlot is a dark blue–colored wine grape variety, that is used as both a blending grape and for varietal wines. The name Merlot is thought to be a diminutive of merle, the French name for the blackbird, probably a reference to the color of the grape. Its softness and "fleshiness", combined with its earlier ripening, makes Merlot a popular grape for blending with the sterner, later-ripening Cabernet Sauvignon, which tends to be higher in tannin.
