Mellisoni

Columbia Valley reds: Reserve Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet-Sangiovese blend.

Mellisoni produces wines from Columbia Valley, Washington's expansive growing region. The winery's portfolio centers on bold red varietals suited to the area's warm days and cool nights. The Reserve Merlot, rated 92 by prestige critics, demonstrates the depth Merlot achieves in this terroir. A Malbec and the Cabernet Sauvignon–Sangiovese blend Best Friends round out the core offerings, both earning 88.5 ratings from Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Spectator. Columbia Valley's elevation and continental climate favor structured reds with ripe fruit and aging potential—characteristics evident across Mellisoni's range. The winery's focus on single varietals and blends reflects the region's capacity for both classical expression and experimentation.
