WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Yamhill Cuvée is named for the county where all of the Domaine Serene Estates are located. This signature blend includes grapes from the Dundee Hills, Eola-Amity Hills, and Yamhill-Carlton AVA’s. It is consistent and approachable, with a textural profile that is vibrant, silky and persistent.
TASTING NOTES:
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.
– James Suckling, 94 pts.
The 2019 Pinot Noir Yamhill Cuvee 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!
