2017 Domaine Serene, 'Aspect' Pinot Noir
Crowning the southernmost peak of the Dundee Hills, the magical Evenstad Estate is one of the most outstanding sites in the world for growing distinctive Pinot Noir. Dry-farmed on Jory soil at elevations ranging from 520 to 825 feet, its seven individual vineyard blocks have multiple exposures and produce some of our most prized wines, including Mark Bradford, Grace, and Côte Sud. We crafted this unique blend to exemplify the terroir synergy possible from diverse aspects of soil, elevation, orientation and clonal selection found within one remarkable vineyard estate.
The 2017 'Aspect' is powerful yet elegant, and simply delicious. Structure and finesse are present in equal measure, with a supple core of juicy red-and-black fruit that its collectors have come to expect and those who are new to 'Aspect' delight in. It will age beautifully in the cellar for decades to come.
