2021 Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Meunier, Dundee Hills, Oregon, USA
ABOUT THIS WINE
Eyrie Vineyards' 2021 Pinot Meunier is a testament to the estate’s pioneering spirit and commitment to showcasing lesser-seen varietals in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Sourced from their original estate plantings, this wine captures the grape’s pure expression with minimal intervention. The cool-climate influence enhances its crisp acidity and red fruit vibrancy, while the old vines contribute depth and complexity. Fermented with native yeasts and aged in neutral oak, this bottling preserves Meunier’s delicate aromatics and textural refinement.
The result is a wine that is both refreshing and structured, perfect for enjoying now but with the potential to evolve beautifully. Pair it with dishes such as roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or aged cheeses to complement its bright fruit and earthy nuances.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Eyrie Vineyards, founded by David Lett in 1965, is a cornerstone of Oregon’s wine legacy. As the first winery to plant Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris in the Willamette Valley, Eyrie has long been at the forefront of the region’s winemaking evolution. Their commitment to organic farming, dry-farming practices, and minimal-intervention winemaking reflects a philosophy of allowing the vineyard to speak through each wine. Today, second-generation winemaker Jason Lett continues this tradition, crafting wines of purity, elegance, and age-worthiness. The 2021 Pinot Meunier exemplifies Eyrie’s dedication to site-driven, expressive wines that honor both history and innovation.
