Latah Creek’s white wines continue to be some of the best in the state. Mike's winemaking style brought instant success with wines from his first vintage of 1982 that many saw Best of Show winners – a feat never before done. His achievement was immediate, making him one of the forefront winemakers in Washington State. The success has continued for Latah Creek and their whites. In 2014 alone, Latah Creek received 2 Best of Class awards, 5 Double Gold medals, and 4 Gold medals for various whites. Mike’s, and now along side him daughter Natalie, attention to balance and acidity creates a clean, fresh finish in all wines.
Using the Orange Muscat grape produces a wine filled with aromas of sweet orange blossom, fresh jasmine, and spun honey. Slightly effervescent, flavors of honeysuckle and orange cream flood your mouth, while sweet jasmine nuances linger long after the wine is gone. A crisp acid level keeps this wine from being cloying.
