Jan 25th, 2017More floral aromas (spring blossoms) with yellow apple and melon, a round body with mild acidity and spiciness that lingers on the tip of the tongue.

Full bodied style, without oak. Gets boozy as it warms up good fruit. Serve cold.

Mar 9th, 2018Mediocrity expressed via Semillon grapes. Yet another disappointingly bland, bitter, and boring expression from L'Ecole. Not even worthy of a party gift.

2015 vintage. Good balance of texture and acidity. Lemon curd, melon rind, chalky white rocks, dried white flowers, dried herbs, just the right touch of beeswax (a flavor that is sometimes overwhelming in the variety). Blended with 16% Sauvignon Blanc.
