2010 Horsetail Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.8% alc., 150 cases, $28. Sourced from Zena Crown,
Broadley and Sunny Mountain vineyards. 100% destemmed. Aged in 60% new Francois Frères and
Taransaud French oak barrels for 14 months.
·
Moderately light reddish-purple color in the glass. Aromas of
cherry, oak, biscuit (yeasty), stem and coffee becoming more pronounced the following day from a previously
opened and re-corked bottle. Soft in the mouth with vibrant acidity, featuring cherry and raspberry fruit with a
hint of tarry, coffee-scented oak in the background. A racy wine for early drinking. Decent.

2005 Broadley Vineyards Claudia’s Choice Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $40. A family-
owned and worked winery. This wine comes from a 7 acre distinct block of the estate vineyard.
·
Black cherries,
Asian 5 spice and pencil shavings make up an interesting nose. Slightly jammy and simple fruits with a
very healthy tannic backbone. I would lay this one down a few years.

2005 Broadley Shea Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $45. Broadley is a family-owned
winery in Monroe in the southern Willamette Valley whose first release was in 1988. Sourced
from old vines.
·
This wine showed more the redder fruit profile of this vineyard. Lightest in color and
structure of all of the Shea Vineyard wines, with a noticeable brisk acidity and citrus kick on the backend.
While the Auteur is more a sipping wine, this is more a table wine.
