Addressing the feasibility of quantum communication with electrons we consider entangled spin states of electrons in a double-dot which is weakly coupled to leads. We show that the entanglement of two electrons in the double-dot can be detected in mesoscopic transport and noise measurements. In the Coulomb blockade and cotunneling regime the singlet and triplet states lead to phase-coherent current and noise contributions of opposite signs and to Aharonov-Bohm and Berry phase oscillations. These oscillations are a genuine two-particle effect and provide a direct measure of nonlocality in entangled states. We show that the ratio of zero-frequency noise to current is equal to the electron charge.
