Latah Creek Maywine 2022

The recipe for this wine originates from Mike’s mentor in white wine, a fifth-generation Hungarian winemaker. When Mike relocated to Washington State, he brought this cherished recipe with him, utilizing local Washington fruit to pay tribute to his mentor. After more than 40  years, Mike and Natalie continue to craft this delightful celebration wine. While Latah Creek’s version is slightly sweeter than the traditional German Maiwine typically enjoyed during their spring celebration each year, it still features the classic strawberry juice and woodruff herbs. These herbs are added to the wine once fermentation is finished and steeped for 3-5 weeks, depending on the desired intensity. Finally, the strawberry juice is mixed in before bottling, resulting in a delightful blend of strawberry and herb flavors.

Natalie’s Tasting Notes

This wine has often been described to me as a delightful expression of springtime! I think that is the perfect characterization of this wine and the feeling you get when take your first sip.  I love making this wine with my dad, and since it was passed down to him, and now to me, I hope I can pass it to my children and they will remember the history of it. It features sweet herbs, grassy undertones, and notes of strawberry jam that enchant both the nose and palate. The flavors of maraschino cherry, fresh green grass, and strawberry persist, culminating in a sweet yet refreshing finish.

Food Pairing

Enjoy this wine by itself, with curry dishes, fruit desserts, or light summer meals, such as Ellena’s Bombay Curry Chicken Salad recipe available
