Mellisoni Vineyards

Specialties

We are a very high quality Boutique Winery with limited releases of wines that are very exclusive. The Wines are hand crafted with the end result being Wines that taste so good you’ll want more and more — a bit dangerous but worth it. Each of our Wines is distinctive in flavor and character, ranging from our award winning Gewürztraminer with floral notes and a silky smoothness, Alsace in style, not too sweet, just right, to our Riesling that has been described by many as tasting like a liquid green apple with benefits. Our Pinot Grigio is made Italian style — very dry yet extremely flavorful and bold, our Syrah is smooth and full bodied with no lingering aftertaste, just jammy and very fruit forward, and our Reserve Merlot is absolutely elegant and smooth, it also melts in your mouth and reminds many of drinking a Cabernet, it’s flavors are complex and there is no lingering aftertaste, just silky smooth layers that linger beautifully and make you want to drink more.

Enjoy!

History

Established in 2004.

We started our Winery after taking a trip to Italy and staying at a very exclusive Winery called Livernano, in Tuscany. We stayed there for 7 days and helped pick the grapes and make the wine with the owner. We were there with 8 other guests from all around the world and had such an incredible experience that it inspired us to bring that same experience back to our property on Lake Chelan, Washington, where we have a beautiful 10 acre site right on the lake, with amazing lake, mountain, and valley views from all over our steeply sloped site. We are building our Winery and Vineyard slowly and are constantly adding new features that will enhance your experience here with us. We want you to be an interactive part of our Winery and encourage you to explore our entire hillside, sit back in our adirondack chairs on the lawn overlooking the lake, or move up to one of our Private Coves with your own Cabana and enjoy privacy and incredible views with full Wine and food service.

See you soon!

Business Owner

My wife Donna, and I are very excited to share our experiences with you. We have an incredible passion for Wine and have traveled extensively throughout Italy tasting some of the worlds greatest Wines and foods, which are the inspiration for our Winery. Did I mention that we also love to drink a lot of wine also! Donna has the Chemistry background and I have the Entertainment background, so between the 2 of us, we have a lot of fun. We also have 2 incredible Winemakers helping us to bring our distinct pallets to our Wines and are being taught as we go from both of them, call it a long term internship for us, and hopefully you’ll agree that all of our Wines are incredible in their own distinct ways. One of the most important lessons we learned from the owner of Livernano Winery in the Tuscan region of Italy was that you have to build your wines for your own pallet, because, if no one else likes them, and your stuck with them, at least you’ll love drinking them yourselves. Cioa, Rob
