French Merlot is a red wine grape variety that is extensively grown in Bordeaux and other regions across France. It’s known for producing medium to full-bodied wines that often feature flavours of plum, black cherry, and sometimes notes of chocolate or herbs. Merlot wines typically have moderate acidity and soft tannins, making them approachable and easy to enjoy. They can range from fruity and ready-to-drink to more complex and age-worthy, especially in regions like Pomerol and Saint-Émilion. If you enjoy red wines that are smooth, fruity, and versatile, wines made from French Merlot could be a great choice for you.
