Eyrie Estate Description
Eyrie pioneered the variety in the New World and the New World's oldest vines contribute to this cuvée. They take a slow approach—their Pinot Gris ages 3 to 4 times longer than most commercial versions, on its natural yeast lees and in the company of full malolactic. The result is textural suppleness to complement the acidity, and a surprising ability to age.
Jeb Dunnuck: 93 Points
A bright silver/straw color, the 2022 Pinot Gris is savory on the nose, with delicate toast, transparent mineral tones, wet pavement, yellow apples, and lemon rind. Medium to full-bodied, with a juicy feel, it has a fruitier profile on the palate, with a clean finish. This is a lovely and silky wine to drink over the next 6-8 years.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2022 Pinot Gris Estate is delicate, with an understated bouquet of wildflowers and hints of ginger. The entry is round and soothing, contrasted by a reverberation of acid-driven tension as white pit fruits and sour melon nuances swirl throughout. The 2022 tapers off with a pleasantly bitter twang twang as lime and liquid stone suggestions fade slowly.
