Antonio Galloni
The 2021 L’Evangile is one of the triumphs of the year, especially considering L`Evangile is now farmed biodynamically. Sharply reduced yields - 20 hectoliters-per-hectare versus upper 30s for the rest of the appellation - produced a deeply sensual wine. The 2021 spent 18 months in barrel, 40% new (significantly lower than in the past), with 15% of the wine aged in terra cotta. Those are only details though. What is most encouraging about L`Evangile is how far the property has come in the last few years. Superb. The 2021 L`Evangile is a model of contemporary excellence. It marries classicism with modern approaches to farming and winemaking. 96 points
