Bold Reds: Cabernet Sauvignon vs. Merlot

When it comes to reds, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are 2 of the most popular. If you’re looking for something bold and age-worthy that can hold its own when paired with a ribeye steak, Cab is probably your best bet. Or, if you enjoy a slightly lighter wine that has a bit more flexibility, then Merlot is for you.

Still can’t decide which one to pick? Bordeaux blends typically use both Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes to create a tasty wine that marries the best characteristics of each.
