WINE DESCRIPTION

Latta Upland Vineyard Grenache, a premium wine by Latta Wines in Washington State, showcases the finest Grenache grapes from the Upland Vineyard in Yakima Valley. With well-drained soils and a warm climate, these grapes fully ripen, delivering complex flavors. The wild aromatics and extended finish come from a blend of 50% stems and 50% whole berries. Aged for 22 months in neutral 500L puncheons, this 100% Grenache undergoes minimal intervention, allowing native yeasts to ferment it in neutral oak barrels. The result is an elegant, refined wine with delightful notes of red fruit, spice, and a hint of earthiness—a true representation of Yakima Valley's unique terroir, and a must-try for wine enthusiasts.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Latta Upland Vineyard Grenache is a fresh, light-bodied red wine that showcases bright cranberry and pomegranate aromas, with delicate notes of white pepper and fennel.On the palate, there are bright acidity and a light tannin structure, with raspberry and tart cherry flavors that linger through the finish. This is a balanced and pleasingly complex wine that would be a great accompaniment to a variety of dishes.
