The story behind Stella
Merlot is the quiet workhorse red of the wine world, and we say that with affection. It is a grape that gives soft tannins, plum and cherry fruit, and a round, easy finish, which is why it shows up on so many dinner tables. Styles range from light and juicy to fuller and oak touched, and the grape grows well in Bordeaux, California, Washington and here on the East Coast.
We stock Stella Merlot in the 1.5L size at our Commack shop, a practical larger bottle for a casual pour.
