Wine enthusiasts with a sense of humor have long enjoyed the
playful spirit behind Marilyn Merlot wines, which today are
equally prized by wine connoisseurs, collectors, and fans of
Marilyn Monroe.
Since 1985, each
distinctive vintage of Marilyn Merlot has featured a unique
label based on a photograph of Marilyn Monroe and designed by
Susann Ortega of Ortega Design Studio.
Each new vintage
is released on Marilyn Monroe’s birthday, June 1st, and sells
out quickly. Collectors have made Marilyn Merlot one of the
fastest-appreciating wines on the market, as twelve-bottle sets
of the 1985 through 1996 vintages continue to grow in value and
are now selling for $7,000. |
