TASTING NOTES:
A masterstroke of Pinot Noir making! Deftly placed crunchy red cherry and raspberry fruit with a generosity of sweet oaky spice which unfurls and weaves around the supple tannins and texture, with bristling acidity and a lengthy finish.
- Decanter, 97 pts.
Vivid, fresh red fruit aromas and charming, bright strawberry flavors distinguish this medium-bodied wine that’s on the lighter end of the scale for Domaine Serene. Floral, cedar and cinnamon aromas lead to nicely ripe berries and cherries on the palate backed by medium tannins. Drink now or hold.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Yamhill Cuvée has layered scents of cranberry, red cherry, mossy bark, forest floor and glossy oak spice. The full-bodied palate features concentrated yet nuanced flavors. It’s structured by fine, powdery tannins and juicy acidity and has a long, spicy finish.
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 pts.
The 2022 Pinot Noir Yamhill Cuvée is spicy in the glass, with a collage of rosy florals and cedary spice that gives way to dried strawberries. Soft textures sweep across the palate, carrying ripe red and black fruits elevated by a tactile tinge of minerals and the slightest hint of citrus. The finish is long and staining, leaving fine-grained tannins and a violet floral resonance.
- Vinous, 92 pts.
Refined and handsomely structured, with appealing raspberry and guava flavors laced with black tea, clove and spices. Finishes with fine-grained tannins.
