Eyrie Vineyards, Pinot Gris, Dundee Hills 2022

The Eyrie original vines vineyard, Sisters, Rolling Green, Daphne, and Tukwilla Vineyards

Orientation: South and South-Southeast

Soil: Jory and Woodburn

Vines are non-irrigated, own-rooted, Guyot-trained, on 10’ x 6’ spacing. We use no herbicides, systemic chemicals or insecticides. Vineyards floors are maintained with a native cover and no tillage. Hand harvested.

Eyrie Pinot Gris differs from many of its brethren because we treat it with the same respect as we do our Pinot Noir. Restrained yields give intensity. The grapes are destemmed and undergo a long (4 hour) cycle in a basket press to dejuice. The wine is allowed to follow natural fermentation curves in small stainless tanks

Aging: Neutral oak and some stainless steel tank
