The Eyrie Vineyards 2007 Reserve Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)
- Cellar Selection
- $62
The Eyrie reserve is a single vineyard selection from the estate’s oldest vines, planted between 1967 and 1973. The longevity of these wines is a proven fact; they evolve (and generally improve) for decades. This is already delicious, smoky, almost ethereal, with truly Burgundian finesse and depth. This wine, as much or more than any other, expresses the potential…

The Eyrie Vineyards 2010 Estate Pinot Gris (Dundee Hills)

The grapes used for this wine are from the original vines, planted almost 50 years ago by David Lett. Rich, sleek and textural, this thrilling effort sets a new standard for Oregon Pinot Gris.

The Eyrie Vineyards 2004 Reserve Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)
- $58
A splendid bottle, lucid, refined, a gorgeous evocation of the grape with delicate cherry/cranberry fruit, hints of pepper and spice, and the gravitas that comes with grapes from 40-year-old vines.

The Eyrie Vineyards 2000 Pinot Gris
- Best Buy

Eyrie is back in stride with this benchmark pinot gris after a sub-par '99 bottling. Fresh flavors of lemon zest and pear highlight a subtle wine whose subtle spice and zesty complexity promise a long, pleasing life ahead.

The Eyrie Vineyards 1999 Reserve Pinot Noir
- $35
In a great vintage such as 1999, Eyrie’s reserve Pinot can be expected to age for as long as any made in America. This is ripely scented with classic Pinot fruit and fertile earth. The Burgundian sweet cherry and plum flavors at the heart of it also carry a bit of barnyard, what the French call gout de terroir. Note: this is not jammy, sweet or unctuous. It is not…

The Eyrie Vineyards 2007 Pinot Gris (Dundee Hills)
- $16
In 1970, David Lett made Pinot Gris for the first time – the first time anywhere in America. This, his 38th and final vintage, runs the flavor gamut from citrus to stone fruit to tropical. There’s a deep straw color, a flash of honey, and a substantial, almost weighty midpalate. Light toast adds further flavor interest to the finish.
