About the winery · Menage a Trois Winery ›

Menage a Trois is a California wine brand based in St. Helena and owned by Trinchero Family Estates. The brand is known for approachable blends built around ripe fruit, smooth texture and easy food pairing. Silk was introduced as a softer red-blend alternative to the brand's darker Midnight bottling, using Pinot Noir, Malbec and Petite Sirah for a smoother, more delicate profile. Trinchero Family Estates has been family-owned in Napa Valley since 1948.
