1997 Cristom Vineyards, Pinot Noir Reserve, Willamette Valley

Cristom is a benchmark winery that was instrumental in making the Eola-Amity hills one of the premier spots to grow Pinot Noir in the world. Their unique vineyard site sees exposure to the winds of the Van Duzer Corridor which bring lively acidity and age-ability to the wines.

The Cristom vineyard is separated into five parcels, Eileen, Jessie, Louise, Marjorie and the new Paul Gerrie Vineyard, are all named for family members of the founding Gerrie family.
