This small producer, owned by Doug Tunnell, hand picks all the fruit and bottles by hand at the 40 acre Brick House farm. He uses indigenous yeasts for fermentations and Biodynamic (Organic) farming methods. Doug spent seventeen years as a foreign correspondent for CBS television news before returning to his native Oregon to become one of the state's preeminent winemakers. In 1990, he bought forty acres on the Chehalem Ridge. Today, twenty-six acres are currently under vines. He has learned primarily from doing it himself but relies on advice from friend and fellow winemaker Steve Doerner of Cristom Vineyards. Look for juicy, floral red fruit flavors in this 2008 Pinot Noir for pairing with salmon, pork or chicken with cranberry relish or cheese.
