Note di degustazione
Vivid ruby. Sexy, highly expressive aromas of red and dark berries, cherry-cola, incense and cinnamon. Fleshy and expansive in the mouth, offering sappy but seamless flavors of raspberry and blackberry. Picks up a smoky note with air and finishes with excellent clarity, power and length. You could drink this now but it's built to age.

The 2008 Pinot Noir Eileen Vineyard sports a super-fragrant perfume of earth notes, mineral, underbrush, spice box, black cherry, and black raspberry that jumps from the glass. Dense and layered on the palate, this plush, smooth-textured Pinot has the structure and balance to evolve for 3-4 years. Its drinking window will extend from 2013 to 2023. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, continuity and consistency are the keys to Cristom’s success. The winemaking team led by Steve Doerner rose to the occasion, taking full advantage of the great raw materials provided by the 2008 vintage. Tel. (503) 375-3068; www.cristomwines.com
