Wine Tasting #4 - Menage a Trois Exotic Blend




This is the Menage a Trois Exotic Blend wine. It was $9.99, and its vintage year is 2022. The varietal is a blend of white wines, to include chardonnay, Moscato, and Chenin Blanc. It is from California, US.

There is a very large variety in reviews on this wine. Many say that it is very "refreshing and sweet, with hints of citrus", and is the "perfect summer wine. Others say that it is not sweet at all, is extremely dry, lacks flavor, and just has a "watery and acidic mouthfeel".

Overall, I was not a fan of this wine. It had some legs, and an extremely fruity smell- definitely a mix, I thought I was getting some hints of pineapple, cantaloupe, and mango. I was excited, and then after trying it, immediately changed my mind. It was light, but quite dry, and certainly tasted acidic. It did not necessarily have any specific flavor, besides maybe just citrus. The aftertaste was the worst part- it was just bad and sort of gross. 

I did not have this wine with food, and will most likely never have it again. Wine Folly talks about how this could be a good pairing with pork, poultry, and shellfish, but I will not be giving that a try.
