Eileen Vineyard Pinot Noir
Eileen Vineyard Pinot Noir
Juicy ripe cherry with spicy blood orange.
The 2021 Cristom Eileen Vineyard Pinot Noir presents itself in a deep ruby red with bright purple reflections. Its clarity and brilliance testify to high quality, while the delicate color intensity is typical of Pinot Noir.
On the nose, this vintage reveals a bouquet of ripe cherries and raspberries, complemented by subtle notes of blood orange and spices. Earthy undertones and a light oak presence round off the aroma.
On the palate, the wine is structured and lively with fine, dense tannins. Flavors of black cherries, blackberries and hints of pepper, cinnamon and licorice give it complexity and depth.
The wine comes from the high-altitude Eileen Vineyards, characterized by volcanic soils and cool sea winds. The careful hand-picking of the grapes and the careful aging in the cellar underline its uniqueness and elegance.
Tradition meets innovation: The Gerrie family focuses on sustainable premium winemaking in the Willamette Valley, Oregon.
Cristom Vineyards, a family business in the Eola-Amity Hills of Oregon since 1992, is a prime example of a successful family winery that masters the balancing act between sustainability and performance. The Gerrie family, originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, named the winery after their children Christina and Tom (ChRIS-TOM) in 1992 and is committed to producing exceptional wines. The winery primarily cultivates Pinot Noir and Chardonnay on a vineyard area of around 36 hectares. The winery's philosophy is based on a deep connection to nature and the belief that the quality of the wine is already decided in the vineyard. Cristom Vineyards is characterized by its family atmosphere, with the second generation of the Gerrie family, with Tom Gerrie as winemaker in particular, committed to maintaining the heritage and further developing innovative viticulture and cellar techniques. Their ecological focus and biodynamic farming methods contribute to the uniqueness of their wines, which are highly recognized in the wine world, especially in America but also recently in Europe. In 2023, the winery was among the top 100 wineries in the world by Wine & Spirits magazine for the eighth year in a row. The wines are served in the best restaurants in the world.
