Chelangr'La Winery (Manson, WA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
2003 Red Table Wine View Label
  • Appellation: Washington
  • Merlot Blend
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,
  • A delightful blend of 66% Merlot and 34% Cabernet, this wine is good at room temperature. However, I like it slightly chilled. The high alcohol content doesn't mask the fruit, nor burn the mouth. This wine pairs well with red meats, pork, red sauce pastas, and most salads.

    2009 Merlot View Label
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot
  • Winemaker: Gordon Taylor
  • Why is Washington Merlot so good? Perhaps the soft, easy drinking structure, coupled with the intense and welcoming blackberry and blueberry aromas. Washington Merlot's crimson red color marries with oak without being dominated by it. We all love comfort food and this is comfort wine. Daven Lore 2009 will go down in my mind as one of the best. It's bold, it's dark, with great vanilla, licorice and cinnamon notes. Blackberry, black currant and blueberry pie filling coat the glass and give a heady... ...read more

  • Winemaker: Michael Shaps
  • 45% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Franc, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon. Bottled in August 2005. Released in November 2005. Nose - Aromas of spice, oak and bright red fruits dominate and signify the intensity of this wine. Taste - Heavily extracted with blackberry and currant flavors.

  • We set out to make a highh quality Bordeaux right bank style wine: soft and spicy Merlot based (60%) pleasant Cabernet (30%) with some distinctive Cabernat Franc (10%). We aged it 26 months in new French barrels to provide vanilla and toast aromas.
