A cuvee of the four single vineyards at Cristom, from the baller ‘12 vintage. Tannins nicely resolved here, drinking beautifully. Time did this justice, it was a beast on release. Would love to try this next to the same year Eileen, which has always been my favorite from the winery.

Gavin brought this special bottling from Cristom. Delicious Pinot with pomegranate, underbrush notes. A great example of Oregon Pinot Noir.
