By Evolution RED | PLAYFUL When it comes to Pinot, there’s plenty to be serious about. But there’s just as much scope to have a damn good time WHAT WE TASTE Bright cherries, soft s pices and forest floor PERFECT PAIRING A Pinot to pair with pizzas, parties, BBQs, good days, bad days... TEMP CHECK This cool kid is best served after a bit of chilling – give it about an hour in the fridge ABOUT EVOLUTION Baby-brother brand to Sokol Blosser, this started as a project to continue releasing wines when a nasty pest called phylloxera wiped out most of their vineyards. Through luck and intention, it has evolved (see what we did there?) into a brand in it’s own right under siblings & co-presidents Alison & Alex Sokol Blosser. OUR FAVE THING ABOUT THIS WINE In a region that’s super-serious about Pinot Noir, the Sokol-Blossers have intentionally made this one in a style that you can just sit back and enjoy. No deep contemplation or deep pockets required. THE TECHNICAL STUFF Place: Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA Grape: Pinot Noir Style: Easy drinking on the lighter end of the spectrum Ingredients: Yeast (commercially available strains), Malolactic bacteria, sulfites, grape concentrate, tartaric acid Show more
