Jason:

Which cuvee?

Pete

Pete,

That is all the bottle said. No cuvee name was listed that I could find.

Jason:

I really enjoyed the 99 and 00 Cristom's. I thought that each wine had a Cuvee designation. I did not buy the 01s because I was short of cash. I'll do some research when I can find my notes but today is a day for me to spend with Kristen.

All the Cristom PNs I've hd had something else listed on the label like "Mt. Jefferson Cuvee," "Reserve," or "Louise."

I'm curious about this too. I wonder if this is a wine that they only sold to distributors and just wanted to be visible in grocery stores with an affordable bottle. Bethel Heights started doing this a few years ago.
