		March 13, 2002  ---------BEAUX FRERES AND BROADLEY SALES ALMOST OVER!!!	
[IMAGE]	   Dear Wine lover  We've been offering  Broadley and Beaux Freres' new 2000 vintage Pinot noirs at a pretty big discount, and they are about to raise their prices by $10  a bottle. This is a great last minute chance to save a lot of  money (save about $120 a case!). And we are still offering a 10% discount off the sale price on a full case when you  use 3 day air to ship.   [IMAGE]   [IMAGE]               [IMAGE]  Beaux Freres winemaker Mike Etzel Trying the 2002 vintage   Beaux Freres  Pinot Noir 2000 $56.99 SALE  will be  $68.99 after Friday This is their standard bearer- their  flagship wine that gets such high ratings each year. The 99 was one of two Oregon wines on the "2001 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines  of the World" list. This wine should do at least as well.   An excellent vintage from Ribbon Ridge, the 2000 has a deep  saturated ruby/purple color. Ripe black cherry, cola, and blackberry fruit dominate the bouquet. In the background a hint of spicy  oak can be discerned. Still youthful, this medium to full-bodied wine has a layered palate, moderate tannin and a sweet, long  finish. It is always difficult to compare one vintage to another, but 2000 may represent a hypothetical blend of 1998 and 1999. It  is not as powerful, muscular or tannic as the 1998 nor as forward, charming and accessible as the 1999. It is a big wine and  certainly ranks with our finest vintages to date: 1993, 1994, 1998, and 1999.   JEAN SAYS; THIS IS GREAT WINE! 4-12 YEAR CELLARING, A WINE TO STRETCH THE  POCKETBOOK FOR!  Beaux Freres  Belle Soeurs Shea Vineyard 2000 $44.99  SALE  will be $56.99 after Friday    Their finest Shea Vineyard offering to date. It displays a healthy  saturated dark ruby color with purple nuances. Shea tends to be a seductive, open-knit effort, even in a more tannic year such as  2000. Copious sweet, creamy, black cherry and berry fruit intermixed with toasty wood emerge from the wine's aromas. Medium to  full-bodied and fleshy, with more structure than previous vintages, the 2000 offers the vineyard's hallmark black fruit and a  silky, lusty, hedonistic personality. It should drink well young , and evolve nicely for a decade. Vineyard Manager: Dick  Shea.  Beaux Freres  Belle Soeurs Temperance Hill Vineyard  2000 $44.99 SALE will be $56.99 after Friday   Their first offering from Temperance Hill Vineyard, located in the Eola  Hills of the Willamette Valley. This dynamic wine possesses a saturated dark ruby color and a sweet nose of cranberry, strawberry  and black cherry fruit. An impressive attack is followed by moderate yet ripe tannin. The wine reveals seductive aromatics, fine  density, medium to full body, and plenty of material, but it will require a year or two of cellaring in order to shed its tannin.  At its best between 2004-2012. Vineyard Manager: Dai Crisp       Just in and exciting:  Chateau Ste Michelle Eroica 2001!!!  $25.99 just in!
