Le Puits Sec

2009 Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir

Evesham Wood Le Puits Sec is a remarkable red wine crafted from Pinot Noir, hailing from the esteemed Eola-Amity Hills region. This 2009 vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile, beautifully balanced with moderate acidity that adds a refreshing lift to the palate. The wine reveals a pronounced fruit intensity, with vibrant notes of red cherry, raspberry, and subtle earthy undertones that blend harmoniously. Tannins are elegantly integrated, providing a soft structure that enhances the wine's rich mouthfeel. This delightful Pinot Noir is particularly food-friendly, making it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes, and it finishes with a gently dry sensation, inviting another sip.

Willamette Valley
Willamette Valley

The Willamette Valley is understandably most often associated with Pinot Noir. The cool-climate region has a unique relationship to this most delicate (and temperamental!) red wine grape. Lying on the same latitude as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley enjoys the perfect balance of sunshine and rain, proximity to the Pacific Ocean and protection on either side by the Coast Range and the Cascade Mountains. Along its 100 miles, the Willamette Valley boasts many distinct terroirs, so among its many brightly fruity, elegantly structured and blissfully fragrant Pinots, you'll also find exceptional Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling.
