The Wine

“Quaintrelle" is an old French word that refers to a woman of style and charm who cultivates life’s pleasures—an apt description of our Auction offering from the 2019 vintage. This unique wine was selected from a single barrel of our estate fruit for its flirtatious aromatics, red fruit and baking spice notes and its ability to linger long on the palate. The fruit was sourced from a tiny, three-sided, 0.6-acre block of Dijon 115 planted in 1995 at the highest corner of our farm vineyard. It has been carefully tended for the last four years by our assistant winemaker, Savannah Mills, for her own proprietary label. This Auction lot was raised in French oak cooperage for 17 months before being bottled by hand on-site. It is an authentic reflection of Savannah’s personal style in both wine and in life: bright, lithe, spicy yet loaded with the subtle power found in great Pinot noir. With this wine we intend to deliver some of the best of life’s pleasures to you!
