Cristom
Mt. Jefferson Cuvée Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir
Eola - Amity Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Ruby red, very good clarity. Strawberry aroma, strawberry and raspberry flavors, light skin astringency and a bit of seed bitterness on finish. Slightly tart. After 30 minutes, the lactic character comes out in the finish.

Feb 19th, 2026Really nice & pretty floral/fruity nose & palate, very enjoyable to drink overall but just becomes a bit one note for me after a while

Feb 8th, 2026Very 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

A solid producer year after year! Very juicy and light. Some whole cluster. Very likable and unoffensive. Touch bitter. Orange zest, more red fruit than dark. Cherry/Hint blackberry. Touch oregano. Lime. Crushed marble. Covers the back palate nicely. Lots going on here. I consider this a drink now wine 36 bucks and 13.5%. There are just a handful of Pinots which win me over at this price point. And this one is in the Burgh killer zone. If you like Pinot this is a winner @ San Diego Wine Co.

Quite fruit driven. So perhaps less up my alley compared to the 2022 Résonance. Bright and refreshing. Comes across relative light compared to the Resonance from the L. Jadot outfit. 🍒 cherry, quite tannic, touch lime 🍋🟩 juice. Nice and easy - lacks complexity so I am surprised by the high 95WS rating.
