Brick House Estate is a prestigious vineyard located in the Ribbon Ridge appellation, in the picturesque wine region of the Willamette Valley in Oregon, United States. Known for its organic and biodynamic wines, this 40-hectare estate proudly stands on a volcanic hill, offering a spectacular panorama of the surrounding countryside. Established in 1990 by Doug Tunnell, a former correspondent for CBS News, Brick House Estate is primarily dedicated to the production of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Gamay. Each variety is cultivated with care and respect for the environment, applying biodynamic viticulture methods. This type of cultivation, which respects natural cycles and minimizes human impact, is reflected in the exceptional quality of the wines produced by the estate. The wines of Brick House Estate are known for their originality and authentic expression of the Ribbon Ridge terroir. The estate's iron-rich volcanic subsoil, coupled with the valley's cool climate, gives the wines remarkable complexity and depth. Their Pinot Noir, for example, is often described as having deep red and black fruit aromas, with notes of earth and spices. While the Chardonnay is appreciated for its freshness, balance, and delicate aromas of green apple, white flowers, and roasted hazelnuts. But what truly sets Brick House Estate apart is Doug Tunnell's commitment to environmentally conscious viticulture that respects consumer health. Not only has he vowed to use no synthetic pesticides or herbicides on his land, but he was the first winemaker in Oregon to achieve biodynamic certification. Visiting Brick House Estate is an experience in itself.
