Bethel Heights Pinot noir Casteel Rsv 07
2006 Bethel Heights Pinot Noir Casteel Reserve received 92 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "My favorite of the collection, it is the most deeply colored as well as the most fragrant. Asian spices, incense, black cherry, and black raspberry aromas lead to a layered wine with tons of succulent fruit, 2-3 years of aging potential, and a long, pure finish. It will offer pleasure through 2022."
Bethel Heights "Casteel" Pinot noir 06 is Bethel Heights' blockbuster wine. Raspberry, black cherry, currant and pie spice waft from the glass. This is a wine of great depth, with a silky mouthfeel and an expansive finish. It's hard to believe there's 50% new oak-it's so well integrated.--Marcus
