Merlot Wine

Merlot has the added advantage of being rich and supple but only moderately tannic and, therefore, wonderfully drinkable from early on.
The Merlot grape is larger and thinner skinned than the Cabernet. It is an opulent texture that goes beautifully with h'ordeuves or as an aperitif. Similar to theSoft-Algerian wines of the Pied Noirs, Merlot is the wine used to polish and complexity of Cabernet.
