Cristom Jessie Vineyard Pinot noir 06

Winery: Cristom

Cristom Jessie Vineyard Pinot noir 06 displays aromas of blackberry, cherry, and plum. Flavors of the fruits are joined by allspice, leather, toast, and blackberry liqueur. A core of dark, rich fruit finishes the wine, with tannins and acidity giving place to deep flavors.

Last vintage, 2005, received 92 points from Parker's Wine Advocate.

Previous Vintage tasting Notes

Parker rating 92 points: "The intensely floral, red fruit aromas of the ... Jessie ... lead to a lush, concentrated personality that is awash in fruit. This fleshy, softly-textured, medium-bodied wine has gorgeous power, texture, and length. Its engaging, expressive character reveals loads of red cherries, raspberries, blueberries, and hints of strawberries which linger in its long, harmonious finish. Drink it over the next ten years."
