My Favorite TJ's Wine - Menage a Trois Midnight

Since I didn't have time to run to TJ's last week and buy everyone some bottles of my favorite TJ's wine, I figured I'd share it with you all here. It's the wonderful and very affordable Menage a Trois "Midnight" blend. 

I find the midnight blend to be a big improvement on the more well-known original "Menage a Trois". This one is 59% merlot, 16% cabernet sauvignon, 15% petite sirah, and 10% petit verdot. It's a dark and juicy wine, bursting with dusky flavors and ripe dark fruits. It's a total steal at $10-$12 a bottle. This particular blend of Menage a Trois is handcrafted in small batches, so sadly you can't always find it in the store. Admittedly, I find the branding of menage a trois to be a bit cringey. This is especially true on their website, where they REALLY milk the sexual innuendo branding: http://www.menageatroiswines.com/california-red-wine

Marketing content aside, this is a really great value wine, and in my opinion is by far the best of the menage a trois portfolio. If you see it the next time you're perusing the TJ's wine section, definitely grab a bottle or two if you like dark reds and you won't be disappointed.
