Menage a Trois!

If the title didn't get your attention then I don't know what will. I'm not going to lie, the name of the bottle is what caught my attention. I mean, who wouldn't at least be a little interested? This cleverly named brand comes from California's robust wine industry.

This wine is a blend of Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon with a moderate 13.5 alc. by volume reading. This wine is an excellent wine for a get together with friends without trying to take out a second mortgage on a home. The dollar amount on this wine is 12.99; with a little looking around I am positive it can be picked up for around the 9.00 price range. 

The wine goes down very smooth holding a good 25-35 second finish. This wine can be bought and drank within the same day, with a 5 year aging it would be even better. On the palate there is an intense burst of ripe red fruits, dark berries, and a subtle chocolate after taste. The aromas that bounce off the bottle immediately bring you to fresh raspberries with the tiniest bit of mint leaf on the back end. Allow this bottle to breath at least 30 minutes before drinking and have yourself a great night.
Stay classy friends.
