2018 Watershed Block Estate Pinot Noir

The Watershed Block was planted by founders Bill and Susan Sokol Blosser in the early 70s. Although replanted in 2006/2009 on rootstock, cuttings from fruiting vines were taken from the original plantings and grafted onto rootstock for the replant.

On the nose, our 2018 Watershed Block Pinot Noir shows black cherry, blackberry and pomegranate, as well as leather, tobacco, mushroom, and a little cola. The palate is ripe with the same blackberry and pomegranate, as well as leather, fresh cedar, and a bright finish. The moderate tannins of this wine would pair well with a roasted leg of lamb with pomegranate molasses and cipollini agridolce, as well as cedar plank salmon with fresh blackberry sauce.

 

2018 Big Tree Block Estate Pinot Noir

What is a boy to do when his favorite boyhood climbing tree is ruthlessly chopped down by his father in the name of grape growing? Well, Alex Sokol Blosser is still trying to figure that one out. Until then, Alex drinks Big Tree Pinot Noir and thinks about climbing the strong limbs of a solitary, beautiful, and graceful Big Leaf Maple Tree that used to lie smack dab in the middle of a block of Pinot Noir.

 

Our 2018 Big Tree Block Estate Pinot Noir has a light and floral nose with bright fruit. The palate has dark cherry, pomegranate, and rhubarb notes. This wine pairs well with classic dishes such as chicken Marsala and steak au poivre.

2012 Dundee Hills Estate Pinot Noir

Winemaker Alex Sokol Blosser described the 2012 vintage as “This was a great vintage. Period. I will never see another vintage like this in my lifetime.” Having spent nearly 10 years resting in our cellars, this wine is at peak drinkability and an exquisite example of a well-aged Pinot Noir. Expressive and bright with dark fruit flavors of cherry and blueberry. Earthy and bright, reflective of our Jory soil. Try this with pan-seared pork loin, a classic duck confit, or with anything with truffles.

2017 Big Tree Block Estate Pinot

Big Tree is strong like its namesake, a solitary, beautiful, and graceful Big Leaf Maple Tree that used to lie smack dab in the middle of a block of Pinot Noir. Shallow soil on this site makes the vines struggle more than the rest of our vineyard and produces strength in the wine. The tannins are something your taste buds can climb up, just like Alex used to be able to do when there was a tree there.

 

Our 2017 Big Tree Block Pinot Noir has a light and floral nose. This wine has a complex mouthfeel and soft tannins with pop of pink peppercorn. Serve with hearty meats like lamb burger on a brioche bun with a healthy schmear of smoked ketchup.

2015 Dundee Hills Estate Pinot Noir

Our Dundee Hills Estate Pinot Noir captures and expresses the delicate fruit characteristics associated with this varietal, and we balance that with structure and age-ability. This blend represents our entire Estate with barrels selected from nearly every corner of the property.  Our Dundee Hills Pinot Noir exhibits aromas of black tea and ripe raspberries, followed by bright flavors of rainier cherries, with a subtle white pepper on the finish.
