2015 Broadley Willamette Valley Oregon Pinot Noir

13.5% alc., $18. 100% de-stemmed fruit. Wild yeast fermentation over 10-14 days in open-top stainless steel and plastic bins. Aged 9-10 months in neutral French oak barrels. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. A ripe fruited wine displaying aromas of blackberry, boysenberry and fertile earth, and flavors of purple and black berries with a woody, marzipan note. Mid weight in style, with juicy acidity and balanced tannins, a satin mouthfeel, and finishing with modest length and a red cherry note. A solid wine that is a bit shallow mid palate and finish, but embraceable at this price point. Score: 88. Reviewed June 25, 2017
