Daphne sits near the crest of the Dundee Hills, one of Eyrie's highest and coolest sites, where the topsoil runs less than a foot deep over volcanic bedrock and the vines grow small and gnarled—almost bonsai. That struggle shows up in the glass as tension and precision. Named for a family friend and vinified exactly like every Eyrie Pinot—native yeast, small vessels, barely any new oak—it's the most structured and mineral of the estate's reds. This is Oregon Pinot in its ethereal, high-toned register, the style the Letts have championed for two generations. If you want single-vineyard Willamette with a spine, start here.

"Pale to medium ruby-purple in color, the 2016 Pinot Noir Daphne Vineyard has a nose of red currants, dried cranberries, red cherries and blueberries with accents of tree bark, salami, Earl Grey tea leaves, violet, dusty earth and peppercorn. Medium-bodied and silky, the palate offers intense, perfumed fruits with a finely grained frame and fantastic freshness calling you in for another sip, finishing long and floral. This is so beautiful!" —Erin Brooks

More about Eyrie

David Lett planted the first Pinot Noir vines in Oregon's Willamette Valley in 1965 and released the first vintage in 1970. He also pioneered Pinot Gris in America. His 1975 Reserve placed second at the 1979 Wine Olympics, losing by a hair to a 1959 Burgundy. David's vision transformed Oregon from a wild frontier into a world-class Pinot region.
