The Wine for International Merlot Day

What are we drinking on Merlot Day? The Velvet Devil Merlot an nontraditional bottle from Washington wine producer, Charles Smith.

Merlot sometimes gets a bad rap, but this bottle deserves all the praise it gets. We love its smooth mouthfeel that mingles with dark, ripe fruit notes that continues on with a long, complex finish. It’s only $12 a bottle, comes with a fun label and has perfect notes for fall, such as earthy leather toned down with herbal aromas that finishes with wood notes. All of these elements make for a complex wine that is not too complex to be paired with a variety of foods.

We suggest pairing this wine with a casual pizza or on the coldest day with a warm pan of mushroom or beef lasagna studded with fall squash.
