Ménage à Trois 2008 White
I picked this up because of the blend – Chardonnay, Moscato and Chenin Blanc. I was hoping for the richness of Charonnay and the grapiness of Moscato and some of the all-round deliciousness of a Vouvray that Kelly and I had recently. Well, I didn’t quite get all that. Instead of building on each other, the different grapes seemed to dilute each other. It’s doesn’t have the richness of the Chardonnay, the nose of Moscato or the flavour of Chenin Blanc. It adds up to an adequate but generic crisp white. It reminds me of the Hermit Crab I tried a few weeks ago, even though none of the grapes are in common. I’ll give it a 3/5 for value; I don't feel like I've wasted my money, but I won't buy it again.
