French Merlot is like saying Batman and Robin, Laurel and Hardy, or Tom and Jerry. Merlot and France are the ageing couple you know that are still madly in love; it just works so well. This velvety number gives you all the black cherries and plums you'd need in a lifetime, as well as a touch of chocolate on the finish…because everyone loves a bit of chocolate.
