Sokol Blosser Blossom Ridge Sparkling Rosé 2017 Review
Susan Sokol and Bill Blosser were Oregon wine pioneers. They arrived in 1971, when the Dundee Hills were still being tested. Today, it’s still family-owned with the kids taking up the mantle of making great wine in what is now a very crowded region. They have a wide range of terroir-driven still wines, but their sparkling rosé cannot be missed. It has oomf and depth for an American Sparkler, with an additional brioche or pastry dough vibe that comes from lees aging. The palate is fun. The very active bubbles accentuate the juicy, tart fruit, leaving a nice, even, and dry finish. You may want to buy a few of these.
