Winemaker Notes
Weather conditions for the 1997 growing season were near ideal. As a consequence of these favorable conditions, flavor and color development was excellent--high acid levels were the rule this year instead of the exception. A nice crisp (almost apple-like) finish is the predominant feature of all our 1997 wines--the acid-sugar balance is wonderful. I wish we had grapes like these to use every year.
Latah Creek Wine Cellars was established in 1982 in Spokane. The winery is one of only a few family owned and operated wineries within Washington. At Latah Creek our stylistic aim is to create wines that taste like the grapes from which they came. This is accomplished by using traditional winemaking principles and by the selection of exceptional fruit. Subjecting the wines to the least amount of processing and handling possible enables these natural varietal flavors to remain intact from grape to bottle. Our major goal is to produce wines with natural balance and complexity, providing a perfect compliment to food and absolute enjoyment by themselves.
