Mélange de Trois

Mélange de Trois Wine Details
Price: $16.00 per bottle

Description: From the first sniff, it is easy to tell that this wine is something special, and not Chardonnay. The nose is loaded with sweet cream, honey and apricot characters framed by ripe cantaloupe and subtle tangerine fruit. The palate is rich, but not overbearing, with notes of honeydew, candied pear and elegant caramel. Bursts of cream, roasted hazelnuts and vanilla spice linger intensely on the finish, inviting the taste buds to enjoy the wine just a little longer. The 2003 Mélange de Trois is a beautiful wine made not for sipping, but instead for food. Chilled slightly, it pairs well with pork, fish and chicken dishes where the richness warrants a wine of this caliber. And don’t be afraid to lay a bottle down for awhile. It is known to age well!
