Combining iterable objects

You are given the list wlist that contains lists of different words. Your task is to create a new iterable object, where each element represents a tuple. Each tuple should contain a list from the wlist, the length of this list, and the longest word within this list. If there is ambiguity in choosing the longest word, the word with the lowest index in the considered list should be taken into account. For example, given the list

[
    ['dog', 'pigeon'],
    ['cat', 'wolf', 'seal']
]

the resulting tuples will be:
(['dog', 'pigeon'], 2, 'pigeon')
and
(['cat', 'wolf', 'seal'], 3, 'wolf')
