You'd be hard-pressed to find a more enjoyable pinot\xa0from theYamhill-Carlton AVA (where most wines go for \\$60+/bottle)\xa0than Springbok from Benmar—a blend of mostly Hirschy Vineyard and other supporting vineyards in the region that packs loads of fruit, power, and finesse. Think California pinot with a splash of Burgundy wrapped up in a modest 13.5% ABV.
From the winery: "A bouquet of violets, anise, and forest floor sets the stage for its multifaceted flavor profile. Savory, floral, and featuring spiced red and black fruits with aromatic notes of red cedar and cola. Additional elements such as crushed granite, blackberry/blueberry pie, and a touch of umami contribute to its well-rounded flavor profile. This wine boasts a medium-weight and dusty tannin structure that melds with the delicate nuances of French oak and mineral elements, ultimately delivering arich, juicy, and long finish that has you wanting more."
