Aetre and Tastevin to answer your question " Are there any White Merlots?". No. Merlot, like Zinfandel is a red grape and the primary reason they are vinified as a blush rather than traditionally is normally these are the younger vines crop that wouldn't make successful reds. To acheive the tint in the juice, when the graapes are crushed the amount of time the juice is allowed contact with the skins determine the extraction of color; less time of contact lighter pink, more time darker pink. Hope this clarifies your question. WW
