Stacey from Major Brands Cellar Selection division brought in an interesting wine from Washington state. L'ecole is the name of the winery. One of the first boutique wineries from Washington in this market.
Perigee 2005 Walla Walla Perigee is the point at which the moon is closest to the earth. I thought that was strange but when you think about the importance the moon has in biodynamics I guess it makes sense. I know of several people who plant by the moon to get the best out of the plant. This wine is a blend of Cab Merlot and Cab Franc from the Seven Hills Vineyard. There was a lot going on with this wine at first, typical cab nose but juice and tannin and grip, I thought it was like a youngster that has potential it just needs to settle down a little. The fruit was hidden somewhat by the tannin and hopefully will come out of its shell. For those who love in your face( or mouth) red wines this is right up your alley. Around $47 in store
