Merlot Under $10 in Westford

About Merlot

Merlot is a smooth, medium-bodied red wine grape, and this aisle covers bottles from Napa, Sonoma County and Friuli in Italy. Makers include Chateau Ste Michelle, Rodney Strong, Rombauer, Sutter Home, Yellow Tail, Bedell and Marina Danieli. In general, merlot is softer and less tannic than cabernet sauvignon, with ripe red and dark fruit, which makes it an easy red to start with. Region and maker shape the style, so a Napa merlot usually drinks richer than a lighter Italian one. You can buy merlot from CBC Liquors in Westford in store, for pickup or by delivery.
