I’m back with another wine grape deep dive and this time it’s Merlot!
If I’m being honest, I tend to skip right over Merlot when I see it on the menu. However, after a lot of research, I think I’ve changed my own mind about this grape!
Join me as we dive into the rise and fall of the Merlot grape!
We’ll get into how Merlot went from being a superstar to shunned, how it is often mistaken for Cabernet Sauvignon, its mysterious parentage, the unique characteristics of Merlot grapes, and its global prominence.
We’ll discover the impact terroir has on Merlot from the clay limestone soils of Bordeaux to the mountainous regions where rocky, well-draining soil produces high-quality grapes with concentrated flavors.
If you are ready to have your mind blown about this grape and have Merlot back in the spotlight, press play and let’s go!
