Caparoso Wines

The soft fleshy nature of the grape makes it ideal for blending with sterner, later ripening Cabernet Sauvignon.

More “approachable” and often more affordable also.

Dry, but has a distinct fruit flavour - such as black cherry, strawberry, plum or fig.

The earliest recorded document of Merlot was in the notes of a Bordeaux official in 1784 who labeled wine made from the grape in the Libournais region
