About Merlot
Wine-themed names are rare in this catalogue, and Merlot earns its title honestly enough on paper, with a terpene lineup -- caryophyllene, linalool, caryophyllene oxide, terpinolene, and myrcene -- that reads almost like a wine's own tasting notes, heavy on peppery and floral compounds without straying into anything herbal or sweet. Valley Exclusives is credited as the source offering this indica, with lab testing putting THC at roughly 18 percent, a solid number that doesn't require rounding up or down to place it in respectable territory for an indica-leaning cultivar. No flowering time, height, yield, or flavor notes accompany the entry, and no specific effects have been logged despite the indica classification, so any assumptions about how it feels should be set aside. What's documented instead is a terpene profile unusually rich for a file this sparse, five distinct compounds credited to Valley Exclusives even where most other details remain unrecorded.
