Cristom Vineyards has established itself as a premier producer in Oregon's Willamette Valley, a region renowned for elegant, terroir-driven red wines. The Estate Syrah represents the winery's commitment to showcasing the distinctive character of their vineyard sites through thoughtful winemaking and careful fruit selection. At 12.5% alcohol, this wine exemplifies the refined, balanced style that has become synonymous with Willamette Valley Syrah—offering structure and complexity without excessive alcohol.

This Syrah displays the hallmark elegance of Oregon's cooler climate Syrah expression, with vibrant red and black fruit characteristics complemented by subtle notes of violet and clove. The wine's high tannin structure provides excellent aging potential and food-pairing versatility. Serve alongside game birds, duck, or chicken dishes, or pair with mushroom-based preparations and charcuterie boards. Fresh herbs and aromatic dishes also enhance the wine's sophisticated profile, making it an ideal selection for fine dining and sophisticated entertaining.
