On the plane with Caletino to Kentucky (for the USEF/Markel Young Horse Dressage National Championships) were also several cases of the Hausman’s award winning Pinot Noir wine cultivated from their vineyards at Quailhurst Estates, and managed by her husband Dr. Marvin Hausman. Dr. Hausman decided since his wife had a passion for horses, a career he thoroughly enjoys and respects, he wanted an “expensive hobby of his own.”

Couple sharing their passionDr. Hausman, has been doing revolutionary work in the field of Alzheimer's Disease. His company, Axonyx, has acquired worldwide exclusive patent rights to two main classes of therapeutic compounds which are designed for the treatment of age-related and disease-related dementias, in particular Alzheimer's disease (AD).

With his wife’s passion for Dressage, he wanted a passion of his own outside of his work, and began the vineyards 6 years ago. Their Pinot Noir is like heaven; reflecting the environment they have created at their Quailhurst Estates, located in the beautiful Willamette Valley of northwest Oregon. It is there that the couple shares their passions, successfully; raising quality young horses, and luscious rich red grapes in their vineyards
