One year ago, Ménage à Trois introduced Ménage à Trois Midnight – a dark red blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot. “Ménage à Trois is the fastest growing 750 ml wine brand** in the industry and is widely credited as being the brand that created the domestic premium red blend category.” The Red Blend category (+16%) is outpacing the total wine category growth and is close to becoming a billion dollar category in a scan environment.* “No wine other brand is better positioned to introduce a unique new red blend into the market,” noted Mark Dunlea, marketing director for the brand. A blend of Pinot Noir, Malbec and Petite Sirah, Ménage à Trois Silk is a soft red wine created as a new option for red wine drinkers in the growing Red Blend category.
