2022 The Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Gris “Original Vines”, Dundee Hills, Oregon, USA
There are 26 units left in stock.
ABOUT THIS WINE
Eyrie pioneered Pinot Gris in the New World and the New World’s oldest vines contribute to this cuvée. They take a slow approach—the Pinot Gris ages 3-4 times longer than most commercial versions, on its natural yeast lees and in the company of full malolactic. The result is textural suppleness to complement the acidity, and a surprising ability to age. Recent tastings of 1977, 1983, 1989, and 1991 all continue to show amazing freshness.
The 2022 was fermented in stainless steel and aged for 11 months on the lees.
