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.

I am sorry for being a selfish . I am sorry for ruining what could have been a beautiful lifelong friendship. I always loved and respected you and my mother turned me into a monster. I am paying for that now. I am taking responsibility for that now at 56. I am a music, was, teacher. The ELO album, TIME, shaped my life as did your kindness and I fucked that up early on. I am deeply sorry. I adore seeing you successful. I loved being your friend before I drove that into the ground. I fucked up bad. I am not worth your forgiveness. But I needed to say this. I don’t have a lot of time left. I hope you can forgive me. God bless you and keep you.
