Remembering David Lett

In memory of David Lett, who died Thursday. Its a big loss and all of us who work here in the industry or enjoy the wines, owe him for bringing Pinot Noir vines to Oregon against the advice of California winemakers 40 years ago. It was thought to be too wet and cold, but it has found its way to being some of the best in the world. His son Jason Lett took over winemaking for Eyrie vineyards several years ago and continues to make great Oregon Pinot Noir.
