Merlot is an international red grape variety whose origins lie in neighboring and influential France, particularly in the New Aquitaine area in the southwest of the country, in the Gironde department, a few kilometers from Bordeaux and the Atlantic Ocean.
In its area of origin, in Pomerol, but also here in Italy, in Tuscany, in the Bolgheri area, in the Val di Cornia and Cortona, or even in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, extraordinary wines have been created that certainly do not deserve the generalization that has sometimes labeled it as excessively versatile and accommodating, trivializing the incredible finesse and elegance it has shown in some cases.
