Delightful aromas that transform from mushroom and tilled earth notes to blueberry, cocoa, minerals and flowers. The dark fruit doesn't overwhelm the palate, but you know it's there... soft and refined. So much on the finish - bittersweet chocolate, baking spices, black tea, wild strawberry and cola on the compact finish. Just lovely.

This Pinot is bright, garnet in color with amber-brick hue at the edges. The body is light. Being a light bodied wine, it moves around the glass quickly and sheet down the inside of the glass once the motion stops. No sediment. The wine exhibits soft aromas of fruits and florals. Also picked up some minerals. The flavor profile seemed soft with some nice fruit/berry flavors. The wine was a a bit tannin forward - overall, I felt the wine was young and will continue to improve with time. The winery describes the finish as firm, tart and grippy - I would agree with that description.

I had this twice in one week: first at Soter during a Provisions tasting, second at home after the tasting.
This is exceptional wine and it is ready to go right now.

From the highest elevation in the Soter range. Needs a few more years in the bottle like all the 2014s at this point.
