Eyrie Vineyard Estate Pinot Noir Dundee Hills 2022

97 Points, Decanter
From the first pour of this vibrant purple-hued Pinot, you’ll know you’re in for an extraordinary ride. This estate bottling blends Pinot from Eyrie’s 5 certified-organic estate vineyards, where the Willamette Valley’s iconic variety got its start. This sophisticated, well-balanced, and highly aromatic wine offers notes of candied strawberries, orange peel, pink peppercorns, and a bouquet of florals, highlighted by the distinct scent of rose petals. On the palate, the grippy tannins and vibrant acidity hint at a promising ageing journey.

A pure, elegant, complex and savory red that shows all the diverse flavors of the grape variety, from red cherries to black tea to savory herbs. A medium body and moderate tannins support fresh red fruit, cloves and minerals. Tangy and well balanced. From organically grown grapes. Drink now or hold.

The transparent ruby-colored 2022 Pinot Noir Estate is pretty and floral with notes of lovely, fresh red cherries, roses, spices, and fresh forest herbs. It’s pure and lifted on the palate, with fine-grained, well-defined tannins, and while it’s approachable, it has an elegant, defined structure. Weightless, but with a juicy feel, the wine is fully dry and should be very appealing over the next 8-10 years.

Eyrie’s estate wine Pinot Noir soars like an eagle with aromas of blackberries, violets and the pine needles, duff and mushroom qualities often found on a forest floor. Tart black cherry and lemon zest flavors are joined by notes of cacao nibs and a wee bit of bone marrow. Crisp acidity and silky tannins offer ample support.

Attractive and elegantly refined, with expressive flavors of raspberry and cherry accented with cinnamon, black tea and spice notes that end with fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2034. 293 cases made.
