Folie a Deux Menage a Trois

$13.99 -- Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon

Purchase Folie a Deux Menage a Trois

Winemakers Notes: Ménage à Trois red brings together three strange bedfellows: Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. To add complexity and retain character, each variety was fermented separately, then blended together prior to bottling. On top we’ve got Zinfandel, a saucy tease that brings blackberry and raspberry jam to the relationship. Merlot, with its generous mouth feel and red fruits, fits perfectly in the middle. The rich flavors and firm tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon make it the ideal candidate for the bottom layer of the trio.

Cheese Pairings: 4-Year Gouda, Gruyere

Food Pairings: Buffalo Style Chicken Wings, Chicken Curry with Wild Rice
