The Eyrie Vineyards
About the winery
In 1965, David Lett and his new bride Diana planted the first Pinot noir and Chardonnay vines in the Willlamette Valley, and the New World’s first Pinot gris. The Eyrie Vineyards has been known for elegant, classic wines ever since our first vintage in 1970. Join us in McMinnville, at Yamhill County’s original winery, to enjoy current Eyrie releases and a taste of Oregon wine history!
What makes it different
- Eyrie's founder David Lett planted the first vines in the Willamette Valley on February 22, 1965, establishing the modern era of winegrowing there.(from the winery)
- Eyrie has amassed a large library collection of older vintages representing its winemaking history, now offered through a Cellar Certification process.(from the winery)
- Eyrie employs whole-cluster fermentation for a portion of its Pinot noir, hand-picking directly into fermenters and using traditional pigeage.(from the winery)
