Merlot Wine

Merlot Wine

EverydayAlcohol

Merlot is a red wine grape variety originally from France's Bordeaux region, producing smooth, medium-bodied wines with dominant plum and cherry notes. Compared to its Bordeaux counterpart Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot features softer tannins and earlier drinkability while maintaining similar alcohol levels (typically 13-15% ABV). While containing antioxidant polyphenols associated with red wines, its alcohol content requires mindful consumption in dietary tracking.
