Quantity

In 1970 Eyrie Vineyards released the first Pinot gris from Oregon. The rest is history. Try the wine that started it all! Medium body and balanced acidity make Eyrie's Pinot gris a versatile food wine; Lett's favorite match for his Pinot gris is salmon, which shares the wines slightly velvety texture and subtle flavors, both highlighted by the wine's hints of vanilla and cedar.


Detailed Info, Previous Vintage Notes, Reviews:

In 1970 David Lett produced the first Pinot gris in the U.S., and his wine remains the acknowledged benchmark for the increasingly popular varietal in America. Pinot gris is capable of a wide range of stylistic possibilities, and though Lett avoids comparing his wines,when pressed he says his Pinot gris most closely resembles Alsatian versions.
