  • Product Info

    A refined expression of Washington State Merlot, L'Ecole No 41 Columbia Valley showcases the lush fruit, supple texture, and elegant structure that have made this historic Walla Walla winery a benchmark producer. Since 1983, L'Ecole has championed Merlot as a noble varietal, crafting wines of exceptional balance and age-worthiness that rival the world's finest.

    Tasting Notes:

    • Appearance: Deep garnet with ruby reflections
    • Nose: Inviting aromas of black cherry, plum, and blackberry, layered with notes of cocoa, cedar, vanilla, and hints of dried herbs and sweet spice
    • Palate: Medium to full-bodied with velvety tannins; flavors of ripe dark fruit, mocha, and dark chocolate balanced by bright acidity and subtle oak influence
    • Finish: Smooth, generous, and persistent with lingering notes of espresso, toasted oak, and black pepper

    Vineyard & Winemaking:
    Crafted from Merlot sourced from select vineyards across the Columbia Valley AVA, where warm days and cool nights create ideal conditions for balanced, expressive wines. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, developing complexity and roundness while maintaining the pure fruit character and natural elegance of the vintage.

    Perfect Pairings:
    Versatile and food-friendly, this wine pairs beautifully with roasted duck, grilled lamb, mushroom risotto, beef tenderloin, or aged cheeses. Approachable now but will evolve gracefully over 6-10 years.

    L'Ecole No 41 Merlot 2022 is a wine of elegance and depth—a testament to Washington State's mastery of this classic varietal.
