About the winery · Ménage à Trois Winery ›

Menage a Trois began with the idea of blending three distinct grapes into one approachable California wine. The brand describes its original Red Blend as the wine that helped define the premium red blend category. The current Red Blend continues that three-grape format with Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Menage a Trois Winery is listed by the producer as based in St. Helena, California.
