- J. Christopher Sauvignon Blanc Willamette Valley 2011 Product #26444 (In Stock)

If you could grow and make dry Sauvignon Blanc along the steep, slatey, hills of Germany’s Mosel River, this is what it would taste like. Lot's of acidity here - just how Jay Somers likes it! - so pair with cheeses and salads. Redolent with pepeprmint, citrus, and passion fruit aromas and flavors, it's very bright and mouthwateringly juicy. Notes of slate and lemon drop come up on the long, zesty, finish. Powerful and very, very, good.
- J. Christopher Pinot Noir Willamette Valley 2010 Product #27029 (In Stock)

-
One of our very favorite Oregon Pinot producers had a break-out year with his 2009s - 94 point ratings all over the place - and is continuing without breaking stride in 2010. Jay Somers wants to offer a Burgundian take on Oregon Pinot, and this lithe (just 13% abv) but ripe multi-vineyard cuvee is just that. Broad, rich, and velvety and with generous black-tinged fruit (Oregon), but also juicy, mineral, and smoky (Burgundy). Delicious now and better still in 2014-2016.
