Winemaker's Comments
With their first vintage in 1983, our founders Jean and Baker Ferguson had a vision for their winery, the third established in the Walla Walla Valley. With a nod to L’Ecole’s original label, we celebrate our 40th Anniversary with a special blend from two of the earliest and most important Walla Walla Valley vineyards. Still family-owned and operated, our spirit of adventure and optimism persists today. We raise a glass to the future!
Tasting Notes
This expressive Merlot-based blend reveals beautiful aromatics of dark cherry, blackberry, fresh Mission figs, savory cedar, fresh tobacco, and coffee bean, completed with rose and a touch of sage. Its rich texture is laced with delicate graphite notes, along with dark chocolate and plum, grounded with supple polished tannins. Altogether well-structured, it finishes fresh and focused.
