Washington State Wineries to Visit
“One of Walla Walla’s first wineries, this family-owned venture situated in a 1915 schoolhouse remains one of the region’s—and the state’s—standard bearers. L’Ecole has had successes across its line, but is probably best known for Bordeaux-style reds and arguably America’s best Semillon.”
