2014 L’Ecole No. 41 Ferguson Vineyard Red, Walla Walla Valley, USA (750ml)

TASTING NOTES:

My favorite of the three special cuvees, the 2014 Ferguson checks in as a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 6% Malbec. It knocks it out of the park with its dark, savory, mineral-laced fruit and is full-bodied, deep, rich and concentrated on the palate. This beautiful wine has building structure and ripe tannin, and its going to have two decades or more of longevity.
