The Eyrie Vineyards 2019 ‘The Eyrie’ Pinot Noir

From the original site farmed at Eyrie (since replanted), this honors the past while showcasing the present. Along with 'The Eyrie' bottlings of Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, they form a trio that represents the summation of the decades of work put in by the Lett family. I don't know if any original vines contributed to this blend, but in any event they are quickly vanishing due to ongoing phylloxera. Nonetheless, it's classic Eyrie – subtle, elegant, a bit disarming, with light red fruits, tea leaf tannins, a long, gliding finish, and decades of life ahead. 13%; $85 (Dundee Hills) 94/100
