Nicolas-Jay L'Ensemble Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2019 (750ML)

93 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "Aromas of strawberries, spices and flowers follow through to a medium body with a firm and slightly chewy mouth-feel and a delicious finish. Give it time to come together and open. Unfined and unfiltered. Drink after 2025." 08/22

94 Points, Tim Fish, Wine Spectator: "A wine with grace and tension, this opens with pretty violet aromas that lead to vibrant, steely raspberry and guava flavors accented by forest floor and spices. Ends with refined, mineral-tinged tannins." 10/22

92 Points, Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast: "The aromas smell like a big bowl of fruit, with notes of raspberries and strawberries still on the vine. Peppermint and dried herb add accents. Medium-bodied flavors follow, coating the palate from end to end, with powdered cinnamon tannins and black-tea flavors. It's completely captivating." 09/22
