Home Is Where The Haggis Is

Let’s cut right to the chase and talk Menage a Trois.

THIS Menage…

NOT this Menage…

Geez.  You guys are sick.  I like you.  🙂

This bottle was actually a referral from my mom.  Okay, feeling a little awkward about that bit of information, but I always like to give credit where credit is due and my mom does a darn good job of picking out wines.  She asks her local wine shop for recommendations, narrows down her choices based on what she likes and has yet to disappoint when she brings a few bottles along each time she visits.

When she brought this wine for Thanksgiving, I raised an eyebrow and began to protest, but she insisted it was good and as the name implies, it is dark, seductive and rich in flavor.  Midnight is a blend of not three, but four wines: a Merlot, Cabernet, Petit Syrah and Petit Virdot.  The flavors I tasted were mocha and blackberry.   Maybe I need to revisit the other reds that this label has to offer!

You can find this for around $12 at your nearest wine store.  With Valentine’s Day not that far off, go for something risqué.  It would pair beautifully with a filet and molten lava cake for dessert.  I’m just sayin’…

Cheers my dears!
