Description

Ménage à Trois Luscious Pinot Noir is a daring and decadent expression of the Pinot Noir grape, crafted to deliver a richer, more indulgent experience than your typical, lighter-style Pinot. Produced by the innovative team at Ménage à Trois in California, this wine is designed for those who seek a bold and approachable red that refuses to blend in. The winemakers source grapes from a blend of premier cool-climate vineyards across California’s Central Coast and North Coast, along with warmer inland sites, creating a beautifully balanced wine with impressive depth and character. To achieve its signature 'luscious' profile, the wine often incorporates small amounts of other varietals—such as Syrah—which contribute to a plusher, fuller-bodied texture. Aged with a blend of French and American oak, it develops deep, seductive flavors of succulent black cherry and rich raspberry, flirtatiously accented by sensual whispers of vanilla and a delicate kiss of mocha on the finish. With its soft, smooth tannins and velvety mouthfeel, it is remarkably food-friendly and versatile. It makes an excellent companion for a wide array of dishes, pairing beautifully with the fattiness of salmon or duck, the earthiness of roasted vegetables and mushrooms, or even comforting pasta and risottos. Whether you are settling in for a cozy evening by the fireplace or hosting a dinner party where you want to offer something both sophisticated and crowd-pleasing, this wine is a fantastic choice. It invites you to explore the more hedonistic and lavish side of Pinot Noir, proving that indulgence is just a glass away.
