Quaintrelle

June 5, 2021

I love the wealth of new wineries in Oregon. An Oregon outpost you may have never heard of, Quaintrelle has its roots from Brick House Vineyards and the talented Doug Tunnell. His niece, Savannah Mills, is making some seriously good wines on her own.  Formerly stuck in her corporate job, she had a yearning to join Oregon’s wine country. After another harvest at Brick House, followed quickly by a harvest in New Zealand her uncle offered me the chance to buy a small amount of fruit from his farm to begin making her wine. 

The wine started with the 2014 vintage, utilizing Dijon 115 and Pommard clones grown according to Demeter BioDynamic standards at Brick House Vineyards. The wine is lighter in style than Brick House wines, showing seriojsluy good finesse and tension. Her wine is a downright steal at 38 bucks. Learn more at https://www.quaintrellewines.com and here is my review of the new Quaintrelle Pinot Noir from the 2018 vintage.


2018 Quaintrelle Pinot Noir- Pretty and highly vibrant with a great veil of tension, the 2018 Quaintrelle Pinot Noir shows off pretty red rose water with orange rind and red cherry candy on the nose. The palate is fresh, vibrant and silky with soft tannins that line the great core of guava, teaberry and red raspberry. Earthy undertones add to the enjoyment here. Drink 2021-2031- 92
