2016 Brooks Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

13.8% alc., pH 3.70, TA 0.53, 2,000 cases, $28. 100% de-stemmed, aged 10 months in French oak barrels. Cross-flow filtered. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. Conservative but pleasing flavors of darker berries, sweet oak and a floral intricacy. Light to mid weighted in style, with gratifying flavors of black cherry and black raspberry. Very easygoing, with silky tannins, juicy acidity a bit of toasty oak, and a suave mouthfeel. The overall impression is one of harmony. A solid everyday Pinot Noir. Score: 89.
