2021 Deovlet Pinot Noir La Encantada Vineyard SRH
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2021 Pinot Noir la Encantada Vineyard, made with 15% whole clusters, has wild aromas of iron, pipe tobacco, woodsmoke, autumn leaves, cola and lavender with a core of red berry fruit. The medium-bodied palate balances concentrated fruit with lacy tannins, and it has energetic acidity that highlights pretty floral tones on the finish. It will benefit from 2-3 years in bottle. 118 cases were made.
93 Points - Vinous: The 2021 Pinot Noir La Encantada Vineyard is gentle and caressing on the palate. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, cinnamon, blood orange and dried herbs all grace this super-expressive Pinot. Ryan Deovlet employs just a touch of whole clusters here (15%), which add aromatic presence. Aging is done in a combination of 225 and 500L barrels.
