Albini Merlot
A small-allocation Merlot we keep just a bottle or two of.
The story behind Albini
Merlot is the soft, plummy red that made Bordeaux blends round and made everyday red drinking easy. The grape gives moderate tannin, dark cherry and plum fruit, and a smooth middle, which is why it pairs so widely and drinks well young.
We stock Albini Merlot 750mL here in Commack as a small allocation, one or two bottles at a time. It is the kind of bottle we tuck on the shelf and point to when someone wants a red with body but no hard edges.

Albini cocktails and pairings
Merlot's soft tannin suits roasted and grilled fare more than heavy sauce.
