Lightly score meat in a cross section pattern with a sharp knife. Spread roasted garlic mixture evenly over the surface of meat, roll meat into a tight log shape and tie with kitchen string in 5-6 places. Heat to medium-high and barbecue turning frequently for 30 minutes for medium rare; 40 minutes for medium. Remove from heat and allow to rest 5 - 10 minutes before carving. Remove strings and carve to desired thickness. Alternatively, leave meat flat and grill about 10 minutes per side for medium rare. Merlot Sauce: Heat oil in a heavy saucepot until hot, add the lamb bones and trimming and saute for approximately 10 minutes or until well browned.

Reduce wine to 3/4 cup, then add the chicken stock and herbs. Bring to a boil then simmer, skimming off any fat that rises, until reduced to 1 1/2 cups of sauce, about 40 minutes. Season to taste, strain through a fine strainer and enjoy. Serves 8 Note: To roast garlic, cut off top of head of garlic.
