It was Sine Qua Non assistant winemaker – Maggie Harrison, Frankl’s handpicked mentee, who after more than a decade learning from Frankl, brought the rules-be-damned playbook to Oregon to set the region on its head.
Like her Sine Qua Non mentors, Maggie’s winery in Dundee looks like a place that would interest Walter White, a completely unassuming and unattractive building on a residential street whose closest commercial neighbor is Lumpy’s Tavern down the road.
But in that landscape, her Antica Terra brand has been producing some of the most sought-after Pinot blends in the country, let alone Oregon. They don’t have a club. Just a first come, first served allocation list. Two emails a year and the wine lasts about 18 hours after they hit the send button. Maggie holds back a small amount of production each year for select restaurants like Eleven Madison Park, Coppo in L.A. and 67 Pall Mall in London.
Her 2016 Antica Terra Coriolis Pinot Noir is an intricate blend that is crafted by picking select barrels from Antikythera, Ceras and Botanica Pinot Noirs each AVA specific Pinot Noirs that retail for $120/each and consistently garner several 95+ pt scores. Drawn from two of the best vineyards in the state (Shea and Seven Springs) – this is a Pinot for the ages.
When the sample arrived two weeks ago with the price attached – I wasn’t sure it was right. Released at $60/btl, the lowest price I could find online was $47.99. Though I was only going to have 72 hours at my price, it will be significantly below that. This wine is almost exclusively sold to restaurants and is not even available to the allocation list. I say that to be realistic– it’s unlikely we’ll see this wine again. To get a shot at a true artist and one of the best Pinot Noir winemakers in the country, especially at this price — it’s an absolute steal.

In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
Not Eligible for Futher Discount-From famed winemaker, Robert Foley comes an absolute delight of a bottle of wine. A seamless Bordeaux blend of 80% Cabernet, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot that is incredibly smoothly now but should have another decade easy of prime drinking. It is the definition of a Saturday Night bottle of wine. One to cherish for a special occasion.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
