Description
The Cristom 'Marjorie' Pinot Noir 2023, sourced from the Willamette Valley in Oregon, presents a balanced flavor profile characterized by notes of ripe cherry, earthy undertones, and subtle spice. The region's cool climate contributes to the wine's vibrant acidity and lengthy finish, making it a notable representation of the area’s signature expression of Pinot Noir.
This Pinot Noir pairs well with a variety of dishes, including roasted poultry, grilled salmon, and aged cheeses. Serve slightly chilled to enhance its aromatic qualities, and decant if possible to allow the flavors to fully develop.
Expert Reviews
From a vineyard that was originally planted in 1982, with 12 feet spacing between the rows, the 2023 Pinot Noir Marjorie Vineyard boasts a youthful ruby red color and lifts with notes of cranberries, cinnamon, clove, dusty earth, and minty herbs. The energy of the palate is fantastic, with salty minerality, refreshing acidity, and a long, energetic finish. It’s packed with tension and should only improve over the next several years with some patience. This was my favorite in the range at this tasting, Drink it over the coming 20 years.
An elegant, delicious and structured medium-bodied wine with pleasing aromas of bright raspberries, strawberries, crushed rose petals, pink peppercorns and some cool blue fruit. A nervy backbone with fine, chalky, mouth-filling tannins and a zesty finish that goes on and on. Drinkable now, but it will age wonderfully.
