Serving Up Holiday Cheer At Liberty Lake Wine Cellars!

/

I am writing this month's newsletter in front of our decorated tree with holiday music in the background. It's my favorite time of the year, and I'm excited to share it with all of you! 

Our gift to you for the month of December is our Wednesday $5 glass pour of our 2012 Legacy, every Wednesday in December. This wine is always a favorite in our tasting room and the 2012 is no exception. This unique blend of 30% Petit Verdot, 21% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Tempranillo, 17% Syrah, and 12% Merlot is complex with balanced tannins from being aged in 50% new American oak for 40 months. With a nose of ripened mixed berries and the color of Japanese plums this wine brings forth the essence of Red Mountain. The result is a wine with dark intensity and a backbone which will allow it to be cellared for a decade or more.

6 Bottle Tote Sale! Stock up for the Holidays!
We’ve extended our 6 bottle tote sale for our 2014 Tahija Merlot. The perfect holiday gift for that hard-to-buy-for person in your life.

First Friday December Friday, December 7th, 4-8 p.m.

Local photographer, Jeff O’Shea will be on hand to answer questions about his Liberty Lake photography.
