About this product

Smooth. Juicy. Everyday easy-drinker.
Merlot has always been the people’s red — softer than Cabernet, rounder than Syrah, and endlessly food-friendly. The Morandé Pionero Merlot captures exactly that spirit, delivering ripe, juicy fruit and a velvety texture at a price that makes it perfect for everyday enjoyment.

From Chile’s Central Valley, where sunny days and cool nights help the grapes ripen evenly, this Merlot offers plush berry fruit with just enough structure to keep things interesting. It’s a bottle that works just as well with a quick midweek dinner as it does poured around the table with friends.

For wine lovers in Ireland, it’s a reminder that good Merlot doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive — it just needs to be delicious.

Why we love it:
This is Merlot done right — ripe, smooth, and easy to love. A no-fuss red that offers real quality for the price, with just enough structure to keep things interesting. A weekday essential.
