The Eyrie Vineyards
Estate Grown Willamette Valley Pinot Gris
Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Was between Gruner and Pinot Gris in a blind and got to Oregon Pinot Gris through some deductive help from the blind pourer.
Fruity and creamy, with a vegetal/herbal quality I only associate with those varieties. Muted aromatics led me to warm climate/New World.

The best domestic Gris I’ve ever had.

2022 vintage. Top-notch Oregon Pinot Gris from a less than nascent producer. Light-medium bod. Is it just me or has the raptor on the label gotten smaller over the years? 11.27.24

What can I say. This wine is decadent. Unctuous and lovely. Full bodied and complex white. Impresive.

A personal favorite from Eyrie - waxy and sweet honeycomb, pear, white flowers in a golden, medium weight wine.
