Notes for the 2019 vintage:
Waterford commentary:
"Willamette Valley is both coming out of and heading into two disastrous vintages, weather and smoke, and supplies are very short. If you love Oregon Pinot. Now is the time to load up as much as you possibly can."
Winemaker notes:
"Mt. Jefferson Cuvée is a representation of the Cristom approach to winemaking from some of the finest vineyards in the Eola-Amity hills with a focus on fruit from the estate. With a focus on whole-clusters and native yeast, ‘Mt. Jeff’ is the foundation of our winery and flagship wine of our brand.
Critical acclaim:
"97 points.
"This is very seductive on the nose with ripe strawberry, spice, flowers and hints of cloves. Full-bodied, but very reserved and tight with chewy, polished tannins and a long, long finish. Racy and structured. Try after 2024." - James Suckling
"95 points.
"The caliber of the 2019 Mt. Jefferson Cuvée Pinot Noir, Cristom's largest-production SKU, is impressive this vintage. Medium ruby-purple, it features savory cranberry sauce, orange peel and tar aromas with tones of dried flowers and spice. The medium-bodied palate offers the pleasing, gently grippy tannins and bright freshness characteristic of Cristom's generous whole-cluster inclusion, and it finishes with intense, layered fruits and floral accents." - Wine Advocate
