About WiNEZ

WiNEZ was a monthly event at EZ Street Saloon in South Range, WI. Unfortunately, due to lower turn out the owners had decided to stop hosting the event. The last wine night at EZ was held on November 12, 2014. But that is not to say the die hards won't be getting together for some wine tasting periodically at EZ Street Saloon. I will continue to blog the wines we have tasted pre starting this blog, along with our impromptu meetings, and maybe transform the blog into something more personal. We will see where it goes. I do know the blog will still be about wine!

So for my WiNEZ pals you can count on this blog to serve as an archive of what was consumed and a reference for your spending sprees. For those who are just curious about what the Northwest Wisconsinites are drinking here are some thoughts… but be warned I am by no means a wine expert-I only know what I like. Since I am not an expert I will try to include the winemakers label descriptions as well.

Salute! or as the Finnish would say Kippis!

Wicked White- Middle Sister

Wicked White is the first Middle Sister wine I am not fully fond of.  The blend intriqued me as I like each varietal separately, but together they were less than satisfying.  The appearance was nearly colorless, the taste didn't come to being until well chewed, and the aroma was lacking.  The wicked here was at rest with little life at show.

Varietal:     Blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Gewurtraminer   
Producer/Importer:  Middle Sister
Region: California
Vintage:
Price:
Tasting notes:
Sight (Color/Clarity): nearly colorless
Smell (bouquet, aroma): none
Taste (acidity, balance, body): Not much at first, it did develop a little spicy finish.
Bottle presentation: Classic Middle Sister label
Label description:"After a second or two, lush melon and sweet pear melt on your tongue. A lingering note of minerals finishes the sip."
Comparisons:
Overall rating (1-10): 2.5
Date consumed: April 13, 2011
