Latah Lounge

It is always a joy to highlight the exceptional wine values when they come around. The latest gem to arrive is

2006 Ehlers Estate St. Helena Merlot

The 2006 Estate Merlot leads with enticing aromas of black cherry, spice, brown sugar, mint, and vanilla. On the palate, the wine’s plush, silky texture and fine tannins carry flavors of caramel, cola, pepper, and red apple skin. The overall impression is one of richness and balance.

This is a noteworthy value and will be on our glass pour while it lasts. Enjoy.
