L'Ecole No. 41 Frenchtown Red (2023)

Frenchtown was the first settlement in Walla Walla, this wine was named in homage to those settlers. The wine is dominated by merlot but is a blend of both Bordeaux and Rhone varietals. Wine opens with generous amounts of berry compote- blackberry, boysenberry and raspberry. There are generous layers of anise, cocoa powder and baking spices. Wine is framed by medium body structure and fine tannins. Perfect pairing for any afternoon BBQ as well as grilled meats and hearty vegetable dishes.
