What is it with Merlot and the letter "P"?

Who makes the best Merlot?

Well … we have Provenance, and Pahlmeyer and Palazzo and Paloma and Pride.

There are 26 letters in the alphabet … why did all the good Merlots have to gang up on the letter P?

Oh … and there is this French merlot. Called Petrus. From Pomerol.

Interesting observation.

I try, I really do.

Due to the permeating plum profiles?

Perhaps?

Mike’s just auditioning to be Nicolas Cage’s character in the next ‘save the world by solving a puzzle’ movie.

If you arrange all of the Merlot brands that start with the letter P in alphabetical order by their second letter, you’ll spell out the secret to destroying the universe. Or is it the secret recipe for Coca Cola. I can’t remember.

Or if you drink them backwards, you’ll see the Devil himself at the bottom of the glass.

Don’t forget Pedestal.

Careful Mike. It’s a slippery slope worrying over such pointless matters.

I thought it wasn’t pfashionable to drink pfucking merlot.

Are you sure? I hear Jeff Pfoh1 does it all the time!

yeah, but he also twitters his resume one section at a time.

No, that would be phucking Zinphandel.

Zinfandel needs no steenk’n Ps.

Humm, maybe not in the name, but some “P” might be in the bottle!
