Red fruit character and truffles on the nose. An earthy palate of red cherries and raspberries punctuates this medium-bodied wine, with fine tannins leading to a tangy finish. Drink or hold.

A saturated and barely transparent ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir Estate is ripe and forward with aromas of cherry lozenge, toasted baking spices, and pressed flowers. Rounded and silky, this medium-bodied red is attractive with ripe red and black-berried fruits, supple, fine tannins, and a graceful finish. It’s a very attractive, ripe wine to enjoy over the next few years.

Sleek and pretty, offering bright cherry flavors that are delicate, laced with sassafras tea and spice accents gliding on the lively finish. Drink now through 2031. 4,600 cases made.

Red fruited Pinot Noir from a collection of Dundee Hills sites in the Sokol Blosser portfolio. Floral aromatics of dried violets give way to fresh cranberry relish and wintergreen aromatics. The palate offers a streak of umami underlying bing cherry flesh and ripe raspberries.

Stargazer lily and lavender aromas swirl around a bowl of blueberries and a warm slice of fresh-baked bread. The soft-textured wine is balanced, with bright acidity, silky tannins and dark cherry, clove, citrus and espresso flavors. A medium-long finish is accented by a touch of cinnamon.
