Merlot
by Staff Writer
Merlot is a wine with medium tannic content that is a universal favorite. This wine is not as aggressive as a Cabernet Sauvignon, but nonetheless pairs remarkably well with hearty meals like red meat and pasta, and is perfect for intimate dinners in which a smooth wine is exactly what you’re looking for. Merlot is easy to drink, and appeals to people who like a combination of berry and “bite.”
WinoWorld offers a great list of Pacific Northwest Merlots, including Red Diamond (this is a great wine, and is soft and rich before it’s even had time to breathe), Salmon Harbor (less than $10 for a Wine Spectator 85 points!), and the celebrated L’ecole #41 Merlot from Walla Walla. On our site, you will see labels you recognize, and those that you may not even know how to pronounce, like our Snoqualmie 2000 that offers a layer of butterscotch to its berry and oak flavors.
