Eyrie Reserve Pinot Noir 2003

"The 2003 Pinot Noir Reserve is the product of an exceptionally challenging hot vintage in which successes were the exception. Somehow The Eyrie Vineyards was able to produce a wine of elegance and grace. The wine was aged entirely in seasoned oak. Light to medium ruby in color, it has an enticing perfume of cherry and raspberry, a silky smooth texture, concentrated flavors, and a lengthy finish. It may lack the depth and richness of a great year but it is a superb effort in the 2003 vintage."
-Wine Advocate

"Unlike many new world Pinots that are over-extracted and heavy, [Eyrie 2003 Reserve Pinot noir] is a lesson in finesse and delicacy with a lithe texture and flavors of herbs, minerals, hibiscus and tart red fruit." Food & Wine: Wine Guide ‘08.
