Pine, mushroom, roses, crunchy red fruit, and a mineral-rich finish with fine, mouth-filling tannins — structured, floral, and vibrant. This is a brand new bottling from Cristom, their first Willamette Valley appellation wine. 100% Pinot Noir blended from estate fruit (Eileen, Jessie, Louise, Paul Gerrie vineyards) and nine top grower sites including Bjornson, Durant, and Witness Tree — a who's-who of Willamette. A mix of Jory volcanic and Willakenzie marine sedimentary soils. 42% whole-cluster, native yeast fermented, aged 9 months in French oak, unfined, unfiltered. Practicing organic and biodynamic. Winemaker Daniel Estrin came up under Ted Lemon at Littorai. The entry point to one of Oregon's most serious estates
