This may have been the top among the four: Racines Rinconada, Deovlet S&B, and Point Neuf. The Eyrie had an “au naturale” nose to it that made some think it was flawed, but others found it interesting and distinctive without being funky. Nice balance and mouthfeel.

2021 vintage. From Coravin. Expressive, yet subtle, nose with damp earth and dried rose petals. Light-medium body as well as color. Delicate flavors of assorted mushrooms, incense cedar tree bark and subdued, various herbal teas flanked by red fruits. Already drinking beautifully out of the gate. Thoughtful and hushed and best enjoyed by those looking for a Pinot that tastes like it has a decade of service. For the cork dorks, a blend of three clones: Wadenswil, Upright and Pommard clones and 443 cases created. From the producer's original, 7 acre vineyard planted 1965-1974 and, as such, the original planting of Pinot Noir in the entirety of the Willamette Valley. Simply think about that.
