Well......... I'll just leave the Ménage à Trois comments at the back of

But with a name like that, I had to go look!!

3 strange bedfellows indeed!!

Well, one at least. First time I've seen Zinfandel as a 'mixer' with the
other two. Almost makes me wish I could try some and see what it's like.


I'd always found the 'holy trinity' to be a standout wine mix .... GSM's.

Grenache, Shiraz, and Mourvèdre.


But a GSM is not one I'd use for cooking with....... that would be
sacrilege!!
