The Cristom Immersion
Defining Land, Stewardship & Craftsmanship
Step beyond the tasting room and into the heart of our 240-acre Estate with this immersion experience, designed to bring you closer to the land and the philosophy behind our wines. Meet our grazing flock of sheep and pigs, stroll through seasonal food gardens, and ascend the hillside by vehicle with stops to explore the vineyards, touch ancient volcanic boulders, and peer into soil pits that reveal 14- to 15-million-year-old volcanic basalt flows. Along the way, visit our biodynamic burial grounds and see firsthand how holistic farming practices shape the whole-cluster fermentation and low-intervention wines we craft.
This private, comprehensive tour and tasting offers a rare opportunity to connect the land to the wines through a guided tasting of five notable Cristom Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays, while experiencing the care and vision of our second-generation family winery and 32-year legacy of world-class winegrowing.
Reservations are offered Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays at 11 AM and 2 PM. Please allow 2 hours for this experience.
