Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A blend of Bishop Creek and Eyrie fruit. This has a hint of leather, leaf and some greenish tannins, and a tight core of brambly berry and cranberry fruit. Tannins are well managed and balanced to the wine; the leathery, barnyard flavors expand through the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Very limited, this is a relatively new project from second generation winemaker Jason Lett. It is sourced from “the oldest vines in the Willamette Valley”—presumably Eyrie vines planted in 1965, and finds similar territory as the Eyrie reserve, with a bit more richness through the midpalate, partly from more expressive barrel flavors.
