FAT bastard

Merlot

Merlot is one of our most popular varietals and we work extra hard to achieve the wine's quintessential characteristics. We source fruit from all over the Languedoc-Roussillon to make Fat bastard Merlot. The area is known for its stony soil, which naturally limits yields, and gives the wine a ripe, fruity character and mature tannins.

Tasting Notes

Deep, dark red in color with ripe, fresh fruit and notes of exotic spice. Fresh, full and juicy on the palate with solid mid palate weight and an expansive, round finish.

Food Pairing

Easy to drink with a wide variety of foods, especially poultry and grilled meats. Ideal for your next barbeque!
