Broadley Vineyards Estate Pinot Noir (known in previous vintages as their Reserve wine) represents the character of their grapes, soil, and climate—these are the wines that reflect the unique terroir of their vineyard as a whole. Only their own estate grapes go into the final Estate blend. They destem this fruit and ferment it in open top stainless steel fermenters. The wines are aged for 12 months in 30% new oak barrels and 70% one and two year old barrels. Like all their wines, the Estate Pinot Noir is bottled unfined and unfiltered. Reviews: "The 2006 Pinot Noir Reserve is medium ruby-colored with an attractive perfume of cedar, cherry, and raspberry. Round and ripe on the palate, the wine offers succulent fruit and a forward, friendly personality. Drink it over the next four years." -Rated 88, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate |
