2015 Domaine Serene, ‘Monogram’ Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, Oregon

Domaine Serene Monogram exemplifies the greatness of Oregon Pinot Noir, fulfilling Ken Evenstad’s vision of a robust and more structured style of Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley. Made in extremely small volumes, Monogram is carefully hand-selected from our finest barrels, and only produced when the vintage is appropriate.

Tasting Notes

The latest Monogram release offers complexity and depth not commonly found in Oregon or New World Pinot Noir. Upon approach, layers of dark chocolate, cherries and tamarind fill the glass. On the palate, this rare and exclusive wine dances softly - showcasing silky tannins and a freshness that seems to glide and coat every corner of the palate with delicious, dark fruit flavors. Perfectly balanced, the acidity and structure make this wine extremely age-worthy. With proper cellaring, this stunning wine will continue to enhance and evolve for decades.
