Took a day in a half bottle to come out of its shell a bit, revealing a very pretty wine. Has some floral/rose notes, lots of cherry, great acidity, and solid tannic structure. Juicy cherry lingers on the long finish.

Opened early but this is a real Oregon Pinot Noir!
Color was light and decent clarity. Nose was firm with bright cherry, strawberry and earthy spices.
The palate was very good, well balanced. All elements are aligned and the flavors are bright, fresh and juicy. If you're an old school Burgundy lover this may not be for you, but this has Oregon Pinot written all over it.
Nice alone or with food so a good multi-tasker!

Popped and poured. Very fresh, lively bouquet. Nice juice with hints of cola and spice. True Cristom.

Absolute YUM in a bottle!
This O-noir strikes just the right note of cherry/raspberry/blackberry fruit/acids/earthiness/touch of oak/spice.
Outstanding.
