THE COMPANY

It was early 1965 when David Lett, just 25 years old, moved to Oregon with 3,000 cuttings: he was determined to prove that Pinot Noir could be grown successfully outside of Burgundy. Thus was born the first Pinot Noir vineyard in Oregon and the first Pinot Grigio vineyard in America! In 1966, he and his wife Diana bought land in the Dundee Hills, 30 miles from Portland, and in 1970 he bottled his first wine. It was in 1975, however, that Eyrie Vineyards rose to prominence, when it participated in two major competitions in France, making Oregon wine known to the world. Since 2005, Jason Lett has been running the company, combining the spirit of innovation with respect for tradition. Certified organic farming and wines, 5 different vineyards Sisters, The Eyrie, Outcrop, Roland Green, establish Eyrie as one of the leading wine intrepreters in Oregon and the United States.
