Eyrie now makes six single vineyard and reserve-level Pinots, along with this gorgeous estate blend. If you can put the word "classic" in front of any Oregon Pinot Noir, it would be this one. With perfect balance and authoritative tannins, it's mouthfilling and aromatic-a complex wine that does not rely entirely on pretty fruit to make a statement. Plum, brambly blackberry and some chewy herbs give it length and strength. This can certainly age for a decade or more.

Vivid red. Ripe cherry and raspberry scents reveal building floral and succulent herb flourishes. Juicy and broad in the mouth, offering plush red fruit and candied rose flavors and a spicy topnote. The spiciness carries through a long, smooth finish framed by gentle, pliant tannins.
