UK Wine expert Jancis Robinson says 'Merlot tends to be noticeably lower in tannins and acidity than Cabernet, which makes it much more voluptuous to taste' & 'South Africa has already shown just how gorgeous an oak-aged Merlot ripened in a relatively warm climate can be'.
Merlot really is a crowd-pleaser. If you like smooth, silky and a little bit savoury - then you can't go wrong with this pack.
It is the most-planted variety in France and commonly used in Bordeaux Blends.
