2019 Domaine Serene 'Yamhill Cuvee' Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Oregon USA

Winemaker Notes
Fresh and vibrant, "Yamhill Cuvee" exudes pure and refined elegance. Introduced by a fetching floral nose, intense pure fruit flavors of strawberry, dark cherry and tart cranberry burst on the palate. A veil of complex notes of mulled spices, forest floor and chaparral balance the fruit-driven essence of the wine. The mouthfeel is dense with pure, rich texture and fresh minerality, integrating the structured tannins, leading to a smooth lingering finish.

Press
"Sweet strawberry and cherry with some hibiscus. Medium-bodied with orange peel and fine tannins. Fresh finish. Juicy undertone. Extremely well done for 2019. Drinkable now, but better in a year or two."
Rated 94 Points James Suckling

"The 2019 Pinot Noir Yamhill Cuvée has a medium ruby color and is bursting with pure scents of pomegranate, rhubarb and cranberry with accents of woodsmoke, tobacco leaves, earth and mossy bark. The light-bodied palate offers restrained, earthy fruit, a soft, juicy structure and long, spicy finish. This is very easy to drink! "

"Sleek and generous, with agile raspberry, dusky spice and black tea flavors that fan out toward refined tannins."
