Grapes to Glory: Midnight Wine
When our boldly curious founders decided to “experiment threely” and blend together a luscious threesome of distinctively different grapes into one wine, they knew it needed a name that would live up to this innovative, provocative blend. They called it Ménage à Trois. Not just because it was a revolutionary three-grape blend, but because like its taste it deserved a name that would never blend in. Today, Ménage à Trois continues exploring and creating two-, three-, and four-grape Red Blends, White Blends, and even a Gold Chardonnay wine blend like only Ménage à Trois could.
Welcome to our new Ménage à Trois Wine series called “Grapes to Glory” – every month, we’ll be bringing you captivating “Grapes to Glory” stories about each one of our wine blends – from the inside out.
So get ready to explore your deepest, darkest desires. Savor the pleasures of the dark with mysterious Midnight, a sumptuous wine that goes beyond your basic red with flavors like bold blackberry and plush spiced plum. It’s dark, it’s daring, it’s dusky – and it’s dangerously delicious.
When it comes to crafting this expressive blend, our winemakers spare no expense. And lucky for us, they aren’t afraid of the dark. As a matter of fact, they lavish in it, embracing the deep, shadowy boldness that defines this gorgeous garnet varietal. The result is a truly uninhibited blend – something deeper, darker, and more uninhibited than ever before.
In true Ménage à Trois style, Midnight subscribes to our “the more, the merrier” mantra with a blend of not three, but four different types of grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sarah, and Petit Verdot. Merlot adds a plush, velvety texture, while Cabernet Sauvignon offers elegance and power. Petite Sirah lends inky intensity, and Petit Verdot imparts a deep violet color and concentrated fruit. To round out the flavors, the wine is aged in French and American oak. The result is a wine that leaves an indelible impression.
It’s mysterious and dark, soft and sensual – just like Midnight.
