Merlot is a dark blue-colored wine grape variety, that is used as both a blending grape and for varietal wines. The name Merlot is thought to be a diminutive of merle, the French name for the blackbird, probably a reference to the color of the grape.
Merle is a spotted coloration seen in Collies, Shelties, Australian Shepherds, Cardigan Corgis, and a few others. It is a condition of dark (black or dark grey) spots âon top ofâ larger, lighter, bluish-grey or tan spots. The merling factor was lost from the German Shepherd Dog breed by the 1930s.
