94pts Wine Enthusiast - Editor's Choice

The savory qualities of the Yamhill Cuvée's aromatics are a mix of red-currant compote, saline and roasted pork shoulder. The blackcap raspberry and blueberry flavors found on the slippery-textured palate are sweet and ripe. Velvety tannins are a nice match for the wine's crisp acidity. Serve with your next Cubano sandwich.

Full of oak spices and fresh-crushed raspberry and cherry aromas followed by slightly riper red plums and strawberries. Refreshing light tannins, a medium body and the exuberant fruit give a friendly, approachable appeal. One of the winery’s most widely available pinots. Drink now.

Winemaker Notes

The 2021 Domaine Serene Yamhill Cuvée is a delightful wine that showcases a beautiful array of flavors and aromas. On the nose, there are notes of sweet kirsch cherries, fresh fir tips, potpourri, and sandalwood that create a complex bouquet. As you take a sip, the wine is fruit-forward and plush with a juicy and lush mouthfeel that is both soothing and inviting. There is a delicate balance to this wine, which is not too lean, yet still maintains a sense of delicacy. The palate notes are alluring and pleasurable, with the fruitiness on the nose coming through on the palate, and a finish of rose petal and floral.
