Paul Gregutt’s Rave Reviews of CC Wines
“…this is a winemaker who knows his stuff.”
- Paul Gregutt, NW Wine Guide
Dear friends,
We are thrilled to share that Caelestis Cellars has been featured in the NW Wine Guide —earning high praise and stellar ratings across our lineup, including a 96-point score for our exciting soon-to-be-released 2024 Viognier!!!!!!!
Renowned wine reviewer Paul Gregutt, an expert in Pacific Northwest wines, highlighted the quality of our wines and the pioneering science behind them. Paul discussed Christian’s decades in the Seattle coffee industry, which honed the palate discipline and precision now evident in every one of our wines. I hope you enjoy the story linked here (scroll down to find our review).
Paul’s ratings of Caelestis Cellars wines:
2024 Viognier (Horse Heaven Hills) – 96/100
2022 Pinot Noir (Chehalem Mountains) – 94/100
2024 Pinot Noir Rosé (Chehalem Mountains) – 92/100
2023 Tempranillo Rosé (Rocks District, Walla Walla Valley) – 92/100
2022 Pinot Gris (Chehalem Mountains) – 91/100
We are over the moon with this feedback. Paul shared, “The chance to explore wines from experimental, small-scale, family-owned wineries has led me into some of the most fascinating encounters of my life. The combination of art and science is never more apparent, as is true in these new releases from Caelestis Cellars.”
Next month, we will share even more about our new award-winning Viognier, scheduled for release in November. It’s pretty exciting!
Every day is a drink-the-good-wine-day!
Cheers & hugs,
Kim & Christian
