3 Cheers for Trio Blanca!
We are very fortunate to have a re-release of the Limited Edition California Lake County Trio Blanca, first released in January of 2005. It is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Pinot Blanc. Each grape varietal is outstanding on its own, however, blended the result is fantastic. You get a wine that changes tastes over time from Sauvignon Blanc to Chenin Blanc to Pinot Blanc, eventually fusing into all three grapes to one unbelievable flavour.
Why fortunate you ask? Those who know me know I am a red wine drinker, so finding a white wine that really excites me is rare. The Trio Blanca is one of those whites. I love the flavour transformation over time. Although this wine was good (too good actually) young, it rewards “those who wait”.
The Trio Blanca is a nice wine to have on those cold or warm nights sitting around the fire, reading a good book, or with a meal.
I enjoy Trio with white meats such as pork or chicken. The Pork Tenderloin Baked in White Cream Sauce recipe that features the Trio Blanca is easy to make and very tasty.
Don’t miss this chance to make one the top 5 wines from the last 20 years of the Selection Limited Edition program- I know I won’t!
