Sokol Blosser's Newest Vineyard, Kalita

Kalita Vineyard is Sokol Blosser’s first vineyard purchase since 2008, but more importantly their first vineyard purchase outside the Dundee Hills. Located in the heart of the Yamhill-Carlton AVA in the Willamette Valley, it is a stunner – the vineyard and the wine.

Situated 525 to 750 feet above sea level, this 22 acre site is in the shape of a bowl with vines facing south, southwest and southeast. While the soils of the Dundee Hills are volcanic, Yamhill-Carlton is characterized by marine sediment resulting in a Pinot Noir that exhibits more dark fruit, rather than the classic Dundee Hills red fruit note, and grippier tannins. Delicious and age-worthy!

Decanter, March 2024

There is a pungent intensity to the 2022 Kalita Vineyard Pinot Noir that is evocative of umami richness and flinty gunpowder mineral depth. Scents of forest floor, turned earth and pine tar frame notes of ripe bramble fruit. The palate has ripeness and the classic structure one associates with the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Black cherries, red plum skin and a note of clove and smoke cross the palate, delivering a stony component to the finish.

Decanter, May 2023

Powerful floral aromatics as violets introduce deep blue fruits, forest floor, and a note of iodine. This old 2.5ha plum and cherry orchard produces wines of depth, elegance and restrained power. The palate is lushly fruited with ripe red raspberries, clove and turned earth. The finish is elegant and long-lived.
