School is in session! L’Ecole № 41 is a third-generation, family-owned w**ery located in the historic Frenchtown School depicted on our label. Founded in 1983 by Jean and Baker Ferguson as a retirement project, it was the third w**ery established in the Walla Walla Valley. Refreshing and richly textured, the expressive 2023 Semillon shows vibrant melon, Granny Smith apple, fresh fig, and fragrant acacia and chamomile. On the palate, it is supple and energetic, replete with Bosc pear and stone fruit flavors, persisting to a long, balanced finish. The 2022 Merlot exhibits fresh fruit-forward aromas of red plum, dark cherry, and spiced berries accented by savory notes of sage leaf, licorice, and cedar. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and juicy, offering flavors of black currant and cocoa powder that unfold with a touch of old-world intrigue. The finish is charming and inviting with well-balanced and lingering fine-grained tannins. Join us!
