Middle Sisters Winery an Up and Coming Winery

I got the chance to sample Middle Sisiter wines last night at my wine tasting. Middle Sister is a female owned winery, the wine names were based upon the Founder's daughter Erin, who was a middle sister herself. Terry Wheatley, Founder, has over 30 years experience as a wine professional and was a top wine exec at Sutter Homes Winery before starting Middle Sister. The wines that I sampled were:

  • Sweet and Sassy Moscato - Sweet typical Moscato
  • Drama Queen Pinot Grigio - Very light, hint of fruit mostly melon and lemon. Wonderful Pinot Grigio
  • Sweetie Pie Sweet Red Table Wine - Tasty a light red blend with tastes of jammy fruits, berries, a little bit of cranberry and blackberry. Would be awesome with BBQ or burgers. This wine was fun.
  • Forever Cool Merlot - I loved this wine, true taste of merlot not over done. It is blended with Malbec grapes, which gives it a ripe berry flavor with a hint of chocolate and vanilla. I can't believe that I went for a lighter Merlot.  
  • Rebel Red Red Table Wine - Awesome!!! This is a wonderful red blend of Zinfandel, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah grapes. If you love the bolder reds then this is your wine. Very full bodied wine with tastes of dark plum, berries, and finish of spice that is black pepper. This is a great wine that will go with everything
What won me over with this winery was how well everything was so well blended. This is going to be a powerhouse winery. One to watch in the next few decades to come. 

Don't take my word for it come down and try these for free at Liquor City Bakewell in Covington on the corner of 5th and Bakewell today from 4-8. It's free so come on down.
