2022 L'Ecole No. 41 Ferguson Vineyard Red Walla Walla Valley

(94 Points) A classic blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, 6% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot, the Ferguson is a wine to grow older with. An earthy blackberry tea aroma is joined by bursts of boysenberries and jasmine. The wine's juicy acidity and muscular, grippy tannins support its black cherry, wet stone, bergamot and toasted marshmallow flavors. Enjoy now until 2038. — Michael Alberty -- Wine Enthusiast
