FOOD PAIRING
Because of Merlot’s lighter tannin structure, you typically don’t get an intense sensation of astringency in your mouth. This makes Merlot fun to pair with softer poultry and meats on the sweet or savoury side, like roasted duck, lechon, or honey-barbecued chicken. Pair Merlot wine with Basque sheep’s milk cheeses like lstara, Alpine cow’s milk cheeses like Beaufort and medium-bodied washed rind cheeseslike Pont l’Eveque.
