Merlot is one of the world’s most beloved red wine grapes, thriving in Bordeaux and finding a home in select vineyards across California and the Pacific Northwest. Known for its velvety texture and notes of ripe plum, black cherry, and soft spice, it’s a smooth-sipping wine that pairs beautifully with a variety of cheeses. Here are some of our favorites to enjoy with Merlot:
- L'Amuse Signature Gouda: This edible masterpiece has been matured for eighteen months, allowing its body to develop a muted caramel color, matched by a uniquely intense yet sweet flavor. (7.5 oz)
- Montasio DOP: Montasio is a pasture-terraced mountain located to the northeast of Venice in the Friuli-Venezia region of Italy. Since the mountain milk from which Montasio is made is high in butterfat, the cheese has a richer flavor with hints of butterscotch. (7.5 oz)
- Brick Cheese Spread: Smooth, creamy, and packed with tangy, full-bodied flavor, this spreadable take on Wisconsin’s beloved Brick cheese is an effortless way to add richness to crackers, sandwiches, or even a dollop on a burger. (8 oz)
- Lake Effect by Blakesville Creamery: A stunning bloomy-rind goat cheese that delivers a delicate balance of citrusy brightness and creamy indulgence. The lush, velvety texture melts on the palate, making it an ideal partner for the soft tannins of Merlot. (6 oz)
- Valencia Almonds with Rosemary by Mitica: Spanish Valencia almonds roasted to golden perfection and kissed with fragrant rosemary. Crunchy, savory, and just the right amount of earthy, they make an irresistible snack or cheese board companion. (4 oz)
- Il Bibanesi Chunky Breadsticks with Extra Virgin Olive Oil: These rustic Italian breadsticks are made with high-quality extra virgin olive oil, giving them a crisp, buttery bite that pairs beautifully with cheese and wine. (4.2 oz)
- Mini Toasts: Perfect for elegant canapés and delicious snacks, you will love these little toasts from Holland. (2.75 oz)
- Gift Presentation: Hand assembled in a signature igourmet gift box.
