L'Ecole Nš. 41 Tasting - Liquid Art Fine Wines

Date: Jul 09/10, Fri     Time: 05:00:00-07:00:00     Style: Drop-In

L’Ecole Nš. 41 Tasting - Liquid Art Fine Wines presented L’Ecole Nš. 41. A family-owned business, L'Ecole Nš 41 was founded by Jean and Baker Ferguson. Today, the winery is owned and operated by their daughter and son-in-law, Megan and Martin Clubb.

Built in 1915, the schoolhouse is located in historic Frenchtown, a small community just west of Walla Walla, Washington. Frenchtown derived its name from the many French-Canadians who settled the valley during the early 1800s.

Legend has it, these men of French descent were raising grapes and producing wine. By the 1860s, nurseries, vineyards and winemaking had become a part of the regions' growing economy.

The name - L'Ecole Nš 41 French for "the school" located in district number 41 - was chosen to salute these pioneer viticulture efforts. The winery is currently producing about 30,000 cases annually. Their Semillon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon are all barrel aged, creating a significant demand for barrel storage.

In the fall of 2003, they completed the construction of a new concrete tilt barrel storage facility that accommodates their current inventory of over 2,000 French and American oak barrels.
