Evesham Wood Le Puits Sec Pinot Noir 2021

What a beauty! The 2021 Pinot Noir Le Puits Sec blossoms in the glass with a gorgeous mix of dusty violets and roses complemented by autumnal spice, giving way to citrus-tinged wild berries. This sweeps across the palate with finesse, lifted and ethereal, with shades of blue and purple inner florals accentuating dark red fruits. It finishes long and hauntingly floral with a tactile mineral crunch and coating of gently grippy tannins. For lovers of old-school Oregon Pinot, the 2021 is dreamy. ERCI GUIDO, Vinous Media

OUTSTANDING - An enticing nose offers up an array of floral nuances, red currant, green tea and a whiff of crushed mint. The delicious, energetic and well detailed, even silky, middle weight flavors terminate in a persistent, focused and balanced finale where a touch of dusty youthful austerity slowly emerges. This is not a seductive wine but its subtle and balanced and invites you back for sip after sip. BURGHOUND

Scented nose of spiced cherries, wild berries, sweet spices and a touch of bark. Medium-bodied with bright acidity and bright fruit character on the palate. Vivid and pure with a lively finish. Drink or hold. JAMES SUCKLING
