Eyrie Vineyards Sisters Pinot Noir 2022

Eyrie Vineyards' Sisters Pinot Noir 2022 represents one of five identically produced cuvées, each crafted with wild yeast fermentation in small vessels and aged in a blend of cooperage featuring 19% new oak. The wine charts a compelling ascent through the Dundee Hills, from the Sisters vineyard at 220 feet elevation to the Daphne vineyard at 860 feet, with each expression reflecting the distinct soil, site, exposure, and vine age characteristics of its origin.

Named for the three Pinot sister varieties—gris, blanc, and noir—that grow on the property, this four-acre block was planted in 1987 to Pommard and Wädenswil clones. The vineyard's south-facing exposure and elevation range from 220 to 330 feet create conditions that yield distinctive aromatics. Floral notes emerge above layers of earth and dark fruit, offering a nuanced portrait of how terroir shapes Pinot Noir expression across the estate's varied microclimates.
