艾科勒赤霞珠干紅葡萄酒（拉河谷）

點擊次數：5571

The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley is more fragrant than the Columbia Valley cuvee. Richer, smoother, and more supple, it has excellent breadth on the palate, superb depth, and a lengthy finish. It is a friendly, hedonistic expression of Cabernet Sauvignon. L’Ecole No. 41 is one of Walla Walla’s pioneers, the third modern day winery in the Valley. Over the years the winery has prospered, outgrown the namesake schoolhouse, and now produces about 35,000 cases with distribution in all 50 states and abroad. Despite the expansion, quality has remained consistently excellent. Tel. (509) 525-0940; www.lecole.com

Young, complex, and tightly wound, this 100% varietal wine has tangy, purple fruit matched to layers of rock, earth and savory spice. Give it at least five years in the cellar to blossom.——P.G.(11/1/2009)—— 91
