News — Merlot

While not as sexy as the movie declared Pinot Noir to be, we adore a well-made Merlot. It's hard to believe that a single film may have put Merlot in a terrible way, but a 2009 Sonoma State University study noted a statistical decline in Merlot sales of about 2 percent in the three years following the movie, and an increase in Pinot Noir sales of about 16.
