The 2007 Pinot Noir Bergstrom Vineyard is sourced from a biodynamically farmed estate parcel, another step toward Bergstrom’s goal of being totally biodynamic. He states that the vineyard yields a “ferrous mineral quality”. Dark crimson-colored, it displays a lovely perfume of toast, mineral, spice box, black cherry, and black raspberry. Elegant on the palate, it has layers of savory fruit, light tannin, succulent flavors, and impeccable balance. This lengthy effort will benefit from another 2-3 years of bottle age and perform optimally from 2011 to 2020. - Jay Miller

A nicely complex blend of red raspberry, cranberry, plum and violet aromas merges into nicely rich, round and delicious flavors that possess fine balance and very good to excellent length. Note that this was quite compact at first and required several hours of aeration before it really began to express itself; indeed it was better the next day when I revisited it. Worth a look.
