L'Ecole N° 41 Sémillon Columbia Valley 2022
Vintage Character
L'Ecole No 41 Semillon Columbia Valley 2022 is a dry Columbia Valley white built on Semillon with a touch of Sauvignon Blanc, a classic Washington interpretation of Bordeaux Blanc. The 2022 growing season delivered a fresher, more even ripening pattern after early-season challenges, helping preserve acidity while allowing full flavor development, so the wine offers especially strong value and balance. Fruit is drawn from established Columbia Valley vineyards, where the region's warm days, cool nights and long daylight hours support ripe stone-fruit character, while well-drained soils help retain definition and lift in the finished wine.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
On the nose, it shows lemon curd, white peach, melon and honeysuckle, with subtle notes of brioche, almond and beeswax adding complexity. The palate is medium-bodied and supple, with bright, mouthwatering acidity, a lightly creamy lees-derived texture and a clean, gently savory finish that keeps the wine energetic rather than heavy. It pairs beautifully with roast chicken, halibut with beurre blanc, or sushi and sashimi, making it a versatile bottle for the table.
Winery Background
Founded in 1983, L'Ecole No 41 is a family-owned Washington benchmark, based in the historic Frenchtown schoolhouse in Walla Walla and widely credited as one of the region's pioneering estates. The winery has built a particularly strong reputation for Semillon, working with mature vineyard sources and a philosophy centered on clarity, freshness and site expression. Fruit is typically hand-harvested, whole-cluster pressed for whites, and aged on the lees to build texture without obscuring varietal character, a measured approach that helps explain why L'Ecole remains one of Washington's most dependable classic producers.
