The story behind Bend
Merlot is the grape that made red wine easy to like. It gives a rounded, medium bodied glass with plum and dark cherry, gentle tannin and a soft finish, which is why it pairs so well with weeknight food. The style ranges from bright and fruity to richer and oak touched, and most bottles land somewhere in the middle.
We stock Bend Merlot here in Commack in small quantity, one or two bottles on the shelf at a time. It is a straightforward, affordable red for the table, not a collector bottle. If you want it, call ahead and we will hold it for you.
