We Wish You a Merlot Christmas

Virginia is a leading wine producer in the U.S. It is with pride, I offer this parody.

We wish you a Merlot Christmas

We wish you a Merlot Christmas
We wish you a Merlot Christmas
We wish you a Merlot Christmas
And a Champagne New Year

[Refrain:]
Good tastings we bring to you and your kin,
We wish you a Merlot Christmas and a Champagne New Year.

Now bring us some spicy mulled wine
like Gluhwein imported from the Rhine
with grapes grown upon Virginia vines …
And bring some out here

[Refrain:]
Good tastings we bring to you and your kin,
We wish you a Merlot Christmas and a Champagne New Year.

Virginia is, it’s said, for lovers,
but with wine, you’ll soon discover
not all the warmth is under covers …
So bring some out here

[Refrain:]
Good tastings we bring to you and your kin,
We wish you a Merlot Christmas and a Champagne New Year.

And we won't go until we've got some.
Don’t leave our palates feeling dry and glum
A glass of wine and we will all be chums …
So bring some out here

[Refrain:]
Good tastings we bring to you and your kin,
We wish you a Merlot Christmas and a Champagne New Year.
