Jason Lett is a second-generation Oregon winegrower, who took over from his father David, one of the region’s pioneers in the 1960s. After a degree in plant ecology, he completed his studies at what he calls UCD – the University Close to Dad. The relationship wasn’t always easy, but Jason has pushed Eyrie Vineyards to new heights of quality since 2005, producing some of America’s finest cool climate reds and whites. To read more about Jason have a look at the Eyrie Vineyards website. You can also follow him on Instagram at @eyrievineyards. Don’t forget, Cork Talk is now available on Spotify as well as Apple Podcasts, where you can listen to this week’s episode, plus my back catalogue of interviews with some of the world’s most extraordinary wine figures.
