2018 Broadley Vineyards Temperance Hill Vineyard Eola- Amity Hills Pinot Noir

13.9% alc., 72 cases, $55. Released November 2019. Pommard clone. 70% whole cluster, wild yeast fermentation. Aged 12 months in French oak barrels, 30% new. · Dark garnet color in the glass. Inviting aromas of blackberry, cherry cola, burnt tobacco and a hint of vanilla. Beautifully crafted in a mid-weight style with nicely-ripened and exuberant flavors of blackberry and black raspberry. The fruit in this wine really sings. Well-mannered tannins provide good structure and uplifting acidity brings juiciness. The finish is remarkably long and satisfying. Flat-out terrific when tasted the following day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle with even better integration of tannins. A special wine that will benefit from some cellaring.
