Classic, supple, silky.
I've long been a fan of Sokol-Blosser, I think they balance serious wines with alternate consumer-friendly labels, which make them more approachable.
This Pinot is classic forest floor and earth, which is balanced with fine toasted spices, leather and carob and hints of toffee, with a core of forest berries. It is supple of weight and silky of texture; it starts out fresh and expressive, then grows more muscular on the palate, culminating in a finish of spice, carob and molasses.
