"Named in tribute to Django Rheinhart’s “Nuages,” one of winemaker Jay Somers’ favorite gypsy jazz tunes, the J. Christopher "Nuages" Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir 2013 is selected from the winery’s neighboring vineyards in the Chehalem Mountains AVA and the estate, Appassionata Vineyard. The name “Nuages,” which is French for “clouds,” also pays homage to the moderating influence of Oregon’s autumn cloud cover, which slows ripening to allow for the long hang time that creates fully developed flavors.
This red wine would pair excellently with good company and a variety of meals."
