Roco Pinot Noir The Stalker 21 750ML
The Stalker Pinot Noir is a unique wine. The fermentation style was developed by ROCO’s owner/winemaker, Rollin Soles in a quest to develop deeper, richer flavors in a Pinot Noir without adding heavy, over-the-top green tannins. The name refers to Rollin’s time in Australia, where they call the grape stems òstalks’. The label features Rollin being "stalked" by our logo, a Thunderbird: It was conceptualized by his wife and co-owner, Corby Stonebraker-Soles and was carved into a linoleum block for printing.
Perfumed purple violets, pomegranate blossom, give way to a "vinous" sur bois earthiness before a nice kick of feral blackberry, ripe blueberry, and fig jam fruitiness proofs this wine is Pinot noir centric after all. Aromatically, this wine would stump the best of trained sommeliers.
When Rollin Soles and Corby Stonebraker-Soles came to Oregon in the 1980s, they arrived at the leading edge of a movement. But in those early years, the movement we know today hadn’t yet picked up full momentum. The idea of Oregon wine was actively in the making, emerging in real time through the daring efforts of people like Rollin and Corby and a diverse group of entrepreneurs who wanted nothing more than to produce world-class wines in an unproven but promising winegrowing region. ROCO showcases Oregon winemaking at its peakîthrough a talent that has produced hundreds of 90+ scores from leading industry critics, repeated placement in Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines of the World, and multiple bottlings served in the White House.
Proof/ABV: 14
