Review:

Aromas of dark plum and black raspberry. The rich, round and suave flavors have good balance on the delicious, solidly complex and lingering finish. Brooks Winery's top Pinot noir, cellar for 5-8 years or drink now with several hours aeration.

2006 Vintage Tasting Notes

Aromas of black and red currants, blackberry, warm raspberries, sandalwood, and toast with a generous mouthful of layered fruit. Flavors of black currant, black cherry, blueberry, and nice soft spices. A big, powerful Pinot that shows silky texture and excellent balance.

Beautiful aromas of black currant, cassis, plum,blueberry, and spice emerge from the glass. The mouthfeel has lush blackberry, cherry and smoke. This wine has an excellent balance of acidity with elegant tannins. It finishes with an earthy combination of herbs, spices, and toast leaving a mouthwatering feeling that engulfs the palate.

The wines aged for 11 months in 35% New French oak. these barrels have an element of earth to them, with components of minerality, compost and earth which add balance and richness to the blend. this wine was unfined and filtered. Although still a little tight, this wine is very approachable, and made to lay down for at least the next 10-15 years. Only 129 cases were made. Vineyard: Momtazi and Hyland
