The World’s Best Merlot Regions, Mapped

While Merlot originated in Bordeaux, the grape grows well all around the world. Its cultivation now stretches from its homeland in Europe to the Pacific Northwest of the United States and the Southern Hemisphere. Merlot is often compared to Cabernet Sauvignon: The two go hand in hand because they are the most common varieties in Bordeaux and known for headlining the region’s world-class, luxurious red blends. Where Cabernet is firm in tannins and full in body, Merlot is softer and lighter with fresh, more expressive fruit qualities. The article The World’s Best Merlot Regions, Mapped appeared first on VinePair.
