2023 Cristom Mt. Jefferson Cuvee Pinot Noir RATING JS 91 both the koji and yeast

both the koji and yeast are active at the same time in a multiple parallel fermentation

Great tension for ageing

and a willingness to make a strict selection have all come together to deliver a profound Clos des Goisses

and aromatic peat smoke

but also grace and balance

2023 Cristom Mt. Jefferson Cuvee Pinot Noir RATING JS 91 both the koji and yeast95 Points James Suckling: Very firm, focused and concentrated, showing pure black cherries and blackcurrants on a lively frame of nervy acidity and moderate tannins. Mouthwatering acidity, with fruit expanding on the palate and spices like cloves and cinnamon developing. Drink now or hold.
