Winemaker's Comments
L’Ecole No 41 has been producing Pepper Bridge Vineyard Apogee since 1993. Apogee is our expression of this vineyard’s distinctive and characteristic spicy bold aromas, dark fruit flavors, robust tannins, and rich structure.
Tasting Notes
This single-vineyard Bordeaux blend unfolds with powerful and intriguing aromas of concentrated dark fruit, plum, earthy notes, and hints of leather. Layers of white pepper and dark chocolate are further enhanced by subtle whispers of coriander, graphite, and a touch of mint. The complex palate echoes these impressions with flavors of blackberry, mocha, and allspice, all framed by elegantly structured tannins leading to a robust and harmonious finish.
