ryansnyder reviewed Cristom Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Mt. Jefferson Cuvée 2001 on February 1, 2005 Wow. This very well may be one of the best example of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir on the market. Cristom has shunned the popular method of over-extraction and has created a wine that can be described as nothing less than elegant. Fresh black cherry, rose, smoke, pepper and Bucheron rind meld perfectly together atop this Pinot's satin body. Its many nuances will keep you searching for adjectives to describe until the final sip. |
