White Merlot has a lighter, fruitier taste than red wine. Tasters often describe the flavor of raspberries and other summer fruits. The end result has fewer tannins, the substances that give red wine its dry taste.
Merlot, which in French means The Little Blackbird, is the second most popular red grape in America. It is believed that the first time the grape was used in making wine was in the late 1700s when a French winemaker in the Bordeaux region formally labeled the grape as an ingredient in his Bordeaux wine blend.s the popularity of Bordeaux wine spread across the globe, so too did Merlot. When the grape arrived in California in the mid-nineteenth century, instead of being blended with Cabernet Sauvignon, American winemakers began making wines using 100% Merlot.
