2008 Marilyn Merlot

An Elegant Marilyn Merlot ™ Arrives. This wine is what every other serious wine wants to be! It’s glamour in a glass, it’s a conversation piece, it’s the ultimate gift - elegant, all curves, and drinking beautifully. The release of the 2008 vintage celebrates the 24th vintage of a wine appreciated by fans of the iconic star, collectors of Marilyn memorabilia, and lovers of fine Napa Valley wine.

The striking and glamorous image of Marilyn Monroe in a purple, shoulderless cocktail dress is from photos done for the release of The Asphalt Jungle in 1950, a film noir classic for which John Huston was nominated for an Oscar and in which Marilyn plays to perfection her role as the mistress of a crooked attorney. "People always talk about the collectability of Marilyn Merlot," says Donna Holder, an owner of Marilyn Wines, "but we find quite often that our customers buy three bottles – one to collect, one to enjoy now, and one to give to a wine-loving friend. And Marilyn herself wouldn’t have just collected these wines, she would have drunk them as she was more the 'sip and celebrate life' kind of person."
