L’Ecole No 41 Semillon – 2022 (750ml)

Description

Winemaker’s Comments

Few Semillons show as much richness and complexity as those produced in the distinctive soils of Eastern Washington State. Our cool nights during the growing season and harvest period help to ensure crisp natural acidity and expressive aromatics, making this a wonderful food pairing wine.

Tasting Notes

Refreshing and richly textured, this expressive Semillon shows vibrant melon, peach, Granny Smith apple, and fragrant honeysuckle set against a ginger and key lime character. On the palate, it is supple and energetic, replete with pear and stone fruit flavors, persisting to a balanced, crisp finish.

91 Points Decanter, Clive Pursehouse – August 2023 The Semillon is rich in aromas and across the palate, sourced from five different vineyards across Washingtons larger Columbia Valley AVA. Notes of grilled pineapple, bee pollen and lanolin announce the wines complex, waxy aromatics. The palate shows freshness up front with citrus character and ample richness and depth to a finish marked by beeswax, honey and grilled pineapple.
