Latah Creek’s Red Wines: A Kaleidoscope of Flavors and Styles
Whether it be one of Latah Creek’s small lot creations of 50 cases, or one of their largest productions of nearly 1000 cases, Latah Creek has red wine covered – ranging from wonderfully fruity varieties that are utterly delicious by themselves, to big, bold, and tannic reserve reds that really shine when accompanying a meal. All are marvelous to drink right now, but don’t hesitate to cellar a few for 5-10 years for a real treat. Because Latah Creek has such wonderful relationships with their grape growers, Mike and Natalie are able to change up their wine list every now and then. They still make their award-winning Merlot, but have been able to put their food-friendly/easy drinkability winemaking techniques to various trend varieties, their favorites being Sangiovese and Malbec.
Latah Creek Ellena’s Sangiovese 2022
My Dad and I titled this wine for my Mom as it is her absolute favorite varietal! She loves its everyday drink-ability, versatile food pairing, and of course, her tuscan memories. As soon as this wine enters the glass, earthy aromas, soft oak and tart cherry fill the air. Delicious flavors of cherry, oak vanillin, and spice linger.
Latah Creek Merlot 2019
This full-bodied, ruby red wine gently graces your nose with aromas of toasted chocolate, tart cherry, and rapsberry. Soft, smooth tannins mingled with bright blackberry, violet, and raspberry engulf your mouth, while blackberry jam and mocha linger on.
Latah Creek Malbec 2018
This deep-purple-colored wine begins with aromas of black cherry and raisin. Wonderful bright plum, blueberry, and tobacco flavors mingle while hints of dark roasted coffee and pomegranate seem to linger on forever.
Latah Creek Tempranillo 2021
My favorite red wine varietal, Tempranillo, is beloved for its Old World earthiness. This wine delights with a striking ruby red hue and unfolds with notes of dark fruit and elegant leather. Its silky texture carries hints of fig, dark cherry, and a toasted earthiness that lingers on the palate, creating a complex and satisfying drinking experience.
Latah Creek Sangria no.9
The flavors of tart berries from the juices and concentrates mingle perfectly with the bold, rich flavor of the Mike’s Reserve Red no.4 blend. Bright berries with a hint of oak vanillin linger long after the wine is swallowed. This Sangria should be served well chilled.
Latah Creek Natalie’s Nectar 2021
A dessert red wine made with our 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. The aroma in the glass brings the sensation of pepper while bright berries and plums linger in your mouth long after the wine has been swallowed.
Latah Creek Mike’s Reserve Red #4
These 4 wines blend together beautifully, creating lush, intensely fruity, full- bodied red. Ripe red grapes, purple flowers, and toasted oak on the nose. Dried plum, blackberry, and soft fine leather upon first sip, while espresso and dark chocolate linger.
Latah Creek Reserve Nebbiolo 2021
This wine is deliciously flavorful with the perfect balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins. Aromas of bing cherry and rose greet your nose, and even though the wine may seem light, it has quite a bit of tannic structure and flavors of dried herbs, cranberry and rose hips linger.
Latah Creek Reserve Petite Sirah 2021
This intensely flavored wine is bursting with fruit flavor with enough tannins to help this wine age beautifully. Candied plum and lavender aromas entice your nose while blackberry jam, black plum and nuances of cocoa powder immediately flood your mouth and linger on.
Latah Creek Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
This juicy, ruby-colored wine begins with aromas of grapes, blackberry, and mint. Your mouth is then flooded with dark cherry, dried plum, and raspberry mingled with nuances of toasted oak. All this lingering long after the wine is swallowed. Over 14 months of oak aging to soften the tannins, making this wine velvety smooth.
N Collection 2021 Syrah Avignon
75% Syrah, 11% Counoise, 11% Cinsault, and 3 % Grenache. Purple flowers, bell pepper, and fig aromas greet your nose immediately. Upon first sip, this fruity wine begins with light plum and peppercorns, and finishes with cherries and dried herbs.
N Collection 2018 Nat’s Red Blend
With 51.5% Red Mountain and 38.7% Horse Heaven Hills fruit, you can expect that this wine is a massive and intense red. But it is also luscious, exploding with violet, sweet cherry, and vanilla aromas, while strawberry, bell peppers, and toasted oak flavors linger into a velvety smooth finish.
N Collection 2021 Petit Verdot
100% Red Mountain. It is a beautiful, deeply purple-colored wine that opens up with tobacco, florals, and black cherry. Dark cherry and plum flavors mingle with toasted vanilla and dried herbs.
