MARIA’S BEACH BLONDE. Story behind the picture on the label: Maria is the ultimate Jersey girl as she poses on the Jersey shore. Those two guys behind her definitely thought she was a cute blonde on the beach!

MARIA’S BIG NIGHT RED. Story Behind the Picture on the Label: This features Maria and her husband, Donald, on their wedding night— a big night! This is them leaving the party and putting their shoes outside the door to prepare for an even bigger night.

MARIA’S SIDEWAYS. Story Behind the Picture on the Label: The picture is of Maria’s on the stoop at 601 Monroe St.; If she isn’t careful in the snow she may slip and fall sideways!
The merlot is a reference to the movie Sideways. In the movie, Miles refuses to drink Merlot— he’s a pinot noir man. At Maria’s though, we still like a good merlot.

MARIA’S PRIVATE CELLAR

BLUSHING MARIA. Story Behind the Picture on the Label: The picture is of Maria and Donald on their honeymoon near the beach in Miami Florida. Maria is posing on her “chariot”. She may have a blush after all that time in the sun though!
