Wind might not be the first thing you think of with wine, but as I researched this incredible, 99 point Willamette Valley Pinot Noir… that’s the biggest thing that stuck out to me. See, this wine grows along the Van Duzer Corridor in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA of Oregon’s wine country. In this corridor, more than just the sun, soil, and slope of the hill affect the grapes. The wind here wisps and funnels its way from the Pacific Ocean and through the vines, adding a cooling aspect that affects the grape skins and ripening.

This one element helps create the tension and elegance you taste in the glass. The wind doesn’t just shape the land – it sculpts the wine.
Writer's notes: With a dark crimson color, penetrating notes of cranberry, blueberry, and red cherry round out the core, surrounded by violets, rosehip, clove, orange peel, forest floor, and a touch of dark chocolate shavings. Vibrant, silky, and evocatively long on the finish, this is a masterful Oregon Pinot Noir with tremendous focus and balance.

About The Producer

Cristom Vineyards was founded in 1992 in Oregon’s Eola-Amity Hills, with a vision of producing expressive, site-driven Pinot Noir that could rival the best in the world. Combining Burgundian inspiration with Oregon character, the estate pioneered a balance of biodynamic farming, whole-cluster fermentation, and native yeasts to create wines of structure, purity, and finesse. Still family-owned and operated, Cristom has become one of Oregon’s most acclaimed producers, known for its single-vineyard Pinot Noirs as well as exceptional Chardonnay, Syrah, and Viognier.
