Tasting: Ménage à Trois

Wine: Ménage à Trois
Variety: Moscato
Region: California, USA
Year: 2013
Price: $10

Critic Review: The 2013 Ménage à Trois White is a trip to the islands without the worry of sunburn or bugs. It’s undeniably fruity and unabashedly easy. It’s meant to be quaffed, not analyzed. Our white wine brings together citrus and tropical fruit flavors with crisp acidity. Dare we say it’s refreshing? With food or without, alone or with two companions, this is one of the most exhilarating experiences imaginable.

My Review:  I enjoyed tasting and evaluating this wine. It had a nice fruity and floral smell to it. I expected it to taste like citrus, but I was pleasantly surprised when the overwhelming flavor I tasted was apple. As I continued to taste this wine, I was able tot detect a hint of pear in the flavor. All of these flavors seemed to sit on top of a slightly floral layer of flavor. This was a nice crisp refreshing wine, and I can imagine it pairs well with crackers and a sharper cheese. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this wine!
