Fun experience. Deconstructed Louise. 50% is the winner. 0% easily the bottom. Good wine across the board but interesting to taste the influence of sticks. We blended them all together too, pretty good, Cristom is on to something. — a year ago

The Cristom Louise Vineyard chardonnay was a delightful Willamette chardonnay, able to stand with the better Napa and Carneros chardonnay. — 2 years ago

Very pretty Oregon Pinot, loads of strawberry on the nose as well as violet & whipped cream, lush on the palate without being an overbearing fruit bomb. Present, somewhat grippy tannins and a touch of acidity, feels like a bigger, bolder Pinot but doesn't buckle under its own weight — 16 hours ago

9.1

We had this and Louise for an in house vertical. Both had a great mouthfeel. Both had black cherry, black raspberry and a cherry liqueur feel. Jessie was just a little lighter in flavor. Both were better now than when I had them 6 years ago. Medium bodied, fruit forward. — a month ago

9.2

Darkly floral and youthfully inward, the 2022 Pinot Noir Jessie Vineyard opens with a spicy mix of cedar shavings, earth tones and crushed black raspberries, all lifted by a hint of mint. This is more energetic than expected yet also full of youthful tension. Tart red berries penetrate deeply as grippy tannins settle in toward the close. An air of autumnal spice and lavender lingers as the 2022 finishes with medium length and ample structure. (Eric Guido, Vinous, August 2024)
