Yes, as in all types of wines you can get a dry or a sweet version. Ask the winery what they suggest for your taste. And if you are of drinking age ENJOY!
I see someone mentioned White Merlot, that is really sweet. I perfer a nice Opus1 which tends to be dry.

Every broad type of wine (merlot, cabernet, blush, etc) has various sub-types, flavors, and even textures. These differences are based on many things:
- Type of Wood used for the barrels
- Size of the barrels
- Type of Grapes
- Ripeness of Grapes used
- Additives used
- Heat and humidity of storage area
- Length of time fermented
And there are many other factors as well. The simple answer for you is: Yes.
The more complicated answer is that you should try many different kinds of a specific group of wine, in order to find the one(s) that you like best.

Merlot is made as a full bodied red, as a lighter red, and as a white (which is actually more of a rose). The full bodied red has the flavor of oak and blackberries, and is wonderful with beef. The lighter red is almost as thin as a shiraz, and is great with barbecue and other marinated meats. And the white merlot is fruity, a little dry, and is good with poultry.
