Sokol Blosser Winery Pinot Noir Dundee Hills 2016
Vintage Character
Sokol Blosser Pinot Noir 2016 from the Dundee Hills AVA is an estate-bottled Oregon Pinot Noir that captures one of the Willamette Valley’s most distinctive sites. The 2016 vintage is widely regarded as strong in Oregon: a warm growing season delivered generous ripeness, while enough freshness remained to preserve lift and detail. Its character is closely tied to the Dundee Hills’ famous Jory soils—well-drained, iron-rich volcanic earth—which typically give Pinot Noir a silken texture, red-fruited purity, and an earthy, spice-laced finesse that sets this sub-region apart.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this wine shows classic Dundee Hills charm with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and a gentle thread of baking spice. The palate is medium-bodied and supple, with bright acidity, fine tannins, and a polished texture that carries notes of cranberry, tea leaf, forest floor, and subtle vanilla toward a long, savory finish. It pairs beautifully with duck breast, cedar-planked salmon, or roast mushroom risotto, all of which echo the wine’s balance of delicacy and depth.
Winery Background
Founded in 1971, Sokol Blosser is one of the pioneering family estates of the Dundee Hills and a benchmark name in Oregon Pinot Noir. The winery has built its reputation on environmental stewardship and long-term farming, with estate vineyards cultivated under organic principles and fruit harvested with a strong focus on site expression. In the cellar, the approach is measured rather than heavy-handed, using careful fermentation and restrained oak aging—typically in French oak—to preserve purity, texture, and the nuanced signature of the estate’s volcanic hillside fruit.
