Product information

From a pizza to a Tandoori chicken, The Calvet Merlot is perfect for spontaneous, casual get-togethers; drinking this young, elegant and innovate style of wine can be an eye-opening experience! Yes, it is red, of course it is fruity, but it is also rich, round, plump, jammy and smooth. A daring match with Sweet & Sour Pork; a classic food pairing: Cordon Bleu veal or mild cheeses.

Not bad \- decent with sweet and sour chicken

I am reviewing this as I had a free sample from Ocado. I wouldn’t pay £10 a bottle for it. Not bad for £7 a bottle. It did go well with the sweet and sour chicken - even though it recommended with sweet and sour pork. Would I buy again? - maybe but not at the higher price.

Not a fan

I'm reviewing this because I received a free sample from Ocado. Firstly I don't usually favour merlot so my expectation wasn't too high. It has some hints of vanilla and spice but that's about it. I found it quite harsh and certainly wouldn't pay 10 pound for it. I couldn't recommend this but I'm glad I got to try something I wouldn't purchase usually. Thanks Ocado

Plum Jam in a bottle

I’m reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. I'm a big fan of blends from Languedoc-Roussillon but never really tried a single variety. This went well with a spicy tomato and chorizo pasta. It is very smooth and plumy with hints of vanilla. We finished the bottle watching the Matrix and, whilst the film still didn't make much sense, the wine was delicious.
