Description
"This wine is a Cristom classic, 100% Pinot Noir, and exclusively from the Eola-Amity Hills. The 2022 Mt. Jefferson Cuvée Pinot Noir is crafted predominately from our renowned estate single vineyards - Eileen, Jessie, Louise, Marjorie and Paul Gerrie Vineyard - along with fruit from some of our finest partner vineyards. The variety of sources imbues the Mt. Jeff (as it’s affectionately known) with unique characteristics due to the diverse volcanic soils, elevations, and aspects. With 30 years dedicated to whole cluster fermentations and native yeasts, we consider the Mt. Jefferson Cuvée the embodiment of Cristom’s respected winemaking style. The wine is vibrant and fresh with popping acidity and an effusive strawberry and cherried character. With 46% whole cluster fermentation, the spice is effortlessly integrated into the wine with fine tannins. This vintage is simply outstanding." - Winemaker Notes
