Cristom Mount Jefferson Cuvee Pinot Noir 2024 (750ML)

96 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "The nose is very savory, earthy and botanical, with red roses, sandstone and minerals. The palate is dense and concentrated, with fresh, pure fruit flavors. Full-bodied and structured with a long finish. This is drinkable now but built to age. Open after 2028." 06/26

90-92 Points, Erin Brooks, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "I tasted the 2024 Mt. Jefferson Cuvée Pinot Noir from tank a few days before it was due to be bottled. It has slowly opening aromas of blackberry and black cherry, earth and violets. The medium-bodied palate matches concentrated, floral fruit with well-integrated oak spice. It’s framed by silky tannins and fresh acidity and has a nuanced finish." 11/25

93 Points, Clive Pursehouse, Decanter: "This is the 30th Anniversary bottling of the wine known colloquially as Mt Jeff, with fruit from four of the five Cristom estate vineyards, with only Marjorie not playing a role in this bottling. Pure Willamette character on the nose, with forest floor, tart cranberries, and mint leaves, is balanced by a kiss of sea salt. The palate is a melange of juicy red berries, salty mineral glimpses, and savoury amaro herbals. A classic, after all these years. (Drink between 2025-2033)" 11/25
