L'ECOLE NO 41 2018 SEMILLON COLUMBAI VALLEY 750 ML

COUNTRY: USA REGION: Washington SUB REGION: Columbia Valley APPELLATION/AVA: Columbia Valley ESTATE GROWN WINE: No VINTAGE: 2018 GRAPE(S): 85% Semillon / 15% Sauvignon Blanc TYPE: Wine - White BOTTLE SIZE: 750 ml PACK: 12 CLOSURE: Cork ALC BY VOL(%): 14.5 TOTAL ACIDITY: 5.6 g/L PH: 3.36 CASE PRODUCTION: 4,150 Vintage Notes: 2018 saw perfect dry harvest weather with extended hang-time resulting in rich color and vibrant fruit flavors, another great vintage for Washington State. Higher sugars were balanced against higher acid levels and wonderfully intense color and tannin extraction, big fruit flavors, and overall balanced structure. Another strong Washington vintage. Winemaking Notes: The grapes were harvested in the cool early morning hours and promptly delivered to the winery for immediate pressing. The fruit was whole-cluster pressed to tank and allowed to settle. The juice was then racked off the solids into neutral tight-grained French oak, then barrel fermented and aged for 5 months. Tasting Notes: A refreshing Semillon with vibrant fruit and balanced acidity, this wine shows pretty citrus blossom accented by layers of honeysuckle, melon, apple, spice, and lemon zest persisting through a clean, succulent finish.
