What kinds of food...?!
Answers: ...should you pair merlot with?
Lamb, veal, dark colored fish, rabbit, duck, pork roast or loin and thing like that go very well with Merlot.
Merlot is very good with italian foods, especially those with rich tomato sauces.
cheeses and fruits are usually tasty...
I heard that white wine goes with light meats and red wine goes with dark meats,
so with merlot (red wine) I would try steak or any other red meat along with anything else you normally prepare maybe some pasta along with it
