2007 Brogan Cellars Lingenfelder Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
14.3% alc., $65.
·
Moderately dark reddish purple color. Reticent aromas of dark
fruits and oak. A full-on palate of mixed berry fruits with plenty of tannin and a
cola and citrus note in the background. A husky wine with an impressive core of
fruit that needs time for integration of the tannin. Good.

2006 Brogan Cellars Lingenfelder Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
15.3% alc., $60. From a
Pommard clone block. Aged 11 months in 50% new French oak barrels.
·
Moderate reddish-purple color in the
glass. Opens slowly in the glass, revealing intense crushed berry, black cherry and dark chocolate aromas.
Rich and toasty ripe dark fruits fill the mouth with pleasure. The tannins have melded and the wine is all silk
and satin. The intense fruit, prominent oak and high alcohol all come together in harmony. Very good.

2005 Brogan Cellars Lingenfelder Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
13.9% alc., $55.

An earthy,
savory wine with plenty of tasty black raspberry and black plum fruit and a dash of allspice and oak reflecting
its Pommard and Martini clonal origins. The mouthfeel is rich and pleasing with well defined tannins holding
the fruit in check. A seamless wine that has staying power for over an hour in the glass. Very good (+).
