Cristom Eileen Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019
Descripción
Estructurado, vibrante y persistente, este tinto lleva el nombre de la cofundadora de Cristom, Eileen Gerrie, madre del actual propietario, Tom Gerrie. Como todos los pinot noirs de la casa, se elaboró con la mitad de racimos enteros sin despalillar y empleando levaduras nativas, contribuyendo a su firme tanicidad. Intenso y mineral, destaca también por la presencia de fruta roja madura con un punto dulce en su final.

Opinión de los críticos
Medium ruby, the 2019 Pinot Noir Eileen Vineyard is pure, delicate and so pretty! It has layered aromas of raspberries and blueberries with tangerine peel, aniseed and an array of earthy accents. Bursting with juicy acidity and super silky in texture, the palate has a weightless feel despite its intense, layered flavors, and it finishes with tremendous length.
Dried-strawberry, rose-stem and wet-earth aromas follow through to a full body with firm, intense tannins and a flavorful finish. This is structured and very tight at the moment. Give it time to open and show its true self. Try after 2023.
The tight raspberry and cherry fruit is showcased with a dusting of cocoa from barrel aging. The winery uses native yeast and a percentage of whole clusters in the fermentations, adding complexity and texture along with highlights of stem and leaf. There's a lemony twist to the acidity, which lift the finish. Another year or more of bottle age is recommended.
