October 2018 | Ménage à Trois “Lavish” Merlot

Our October staff pick was chosen by Ken, an employee at Bremer’s for over 6 years.

Ken has always really enjoyed the wines Ménage à Trois Winery releases, from the original red blend to Silk to Decadence Cabernet, he loves them all. So when the new Lavish Merlot hit our racks he just had to try it and it was no exception. With flavors of “rich blueberries and juicy black plums” this full-bodied Merlot is perfect for chilly fall nights and is nothing short of… lavish.

“Lavish is a luxurious, over the top expression of Merlot, offering a truly sensual experience. From its deep ruby red color and its alluring blueberry cordial fragrance, Lavish promises to be much more than a typical Merlot. On the palate, seamlessly integrated flavors of rich, ripe blueberries and juicy black plums flirt recklessly with dark cocoa and sensual vanilla notes before being swept up in a smooth, chocolaty finish. It’s full-bodied with a soft, round mouthfeel—a uniquely rich, extraordinarily lavish Merlot.” – Ménage à Trois Wines
