Sokol Blosser Family Evolution No. 6

This intriguing blend of Syrah, Montepulciano D'Abruzzo and Sangiovese (plus others!) from organic vineyards in Oregon reveals a flavour profile full of cherries and red plums, notes of ripe raspberries, a hint of cinnamon, and has a finish that’s long and juicy! This is a fun wine with an eye-catching label, but it stands up to scrutiny on the taste and complexity front due to 16 months ageing in French oak followed by a further year in bottle. 

Bill and Susan Sokol Blosser planted their first vines in 1971 in the Dundee Hills. Back then there was no Oregon wine industry. Now, Dundee Hills in the heart of the Willamette Valley, is the epicentre of Oregon Pinot Noir. Today, with over 900 wineries and more than 37,000 acres of planted vineyards, Oregon has grown exponentially and its wines are available throughout the world. Sokol Blosser has survived, grown and prospered as a family-owned and run operation, and they are proud to have been part of developing and shaping Oregon’s now prominent wine industry.

Sokol Blosser estate vineyards are farmed organically and received full USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) organic certification in 2005.
