Raywood Vineyards Merlot
Everyday Merlot and Cabernet from Raywood, stocked in Commack.
The story behind Raywood Vineyards
Merlot is a red grape that gives a softer, rounder glass than Cabernet Sauvignon, with plum and dark cherry fruit and gentle tannin. It is the kind of red that drinks well young and works with a wide range of food. Raywood Vineyards is a value label, and we keep a small allocation of their Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon on the shelf in Commack.
We stock one to two bottles at a time, so call ahead if you want a specific bottle held. Our staff has been selling wine on Long Island for over 30 years.
