Merci, meaning ‘Thank You’ in French, is an homage to the most important player in the history of our franchise as well as the legacy of French-Canadian players who have left a lasting impact on our team and city. We are all thankful for what we’ve been able to witness. Merci, indeed. We introduce you to Merci. This premium sparkling wine – meticulously and artfully made in the traditional champagne method – rivals anything found from the best Champagne houses in Épernay and Reims. Blended superbly from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this magnificent Napa Valley Brut exhibits rich fruit aromatics of strawberry and delicate white cherry that follows through to a creamy mid-palate accompanied with highlights of lime and wet minerality and a lingering vibrant finish. FIVE: Five isn’t just a number, it signifies so much more. There are Five banners that hang from our rafters signifying our championship seasons. Those banners reside inside our building which sits on Fifth Avenue. A big reason those banners and that building exist is the 2005 NHL Draft. After winning the draft lottery that year, the Penguins selected Sidney Crosby. Let’s not forget before any of those, there were Five goals scored Five different ways, a feat that has only ever been accomplished once, by Mario Lemieux. And yes, 66 hangs from the rafters, alongside those other Five. We introduce you to FIVE. This proprietary red blend – from our award-winning winemaker Todd Heth – exhibits dark blackberry, bing cherry, and plum notes perfectly into layers of coffee and tobacco. The finish is dry with long-lasting berry fruit. Silky but firm tannins, this wine is enjoyable now but has the ability to age well in the cellar.
