L'ECOLE NO. 41

Ferguson 2019

Notes of fresh, juicy plum, violet and violet candy on the nose move into a decidedly mouth-watering palate. There is vibrant acidity, more apparent than in several previous vintages, while the tannin is fine-grained and persistent. Flavours are generous, friendly and well balanced. This is a pleasing wine that balances serious structure and ageability with abundant flavour and a willingness to deliver pleasure. The wine is quite juicy right now but will benefit from more time in bottle. But the tannin is fine-grained enough that it can be opened now if it is decanted. The abundant acidity makes this vintage a standout in the line-up.
