Anticipation ...
spring is around the corner

As we sit up here on the hill, watching the rain and snow, we know that the vines are just getting ready to burst through with spring just around the corner. And, we here at the winery are getting ready to trot out our 2005 wines! The 2005 vintage was one of the best on record and the wines are lush, complex and, quite simply, delicious!

It’s the perfect time to indulge, with the holidays far behind us and a bright new year ahead! We encourage you to check our online events calendar regularly for the latest happenings, including events at the winery and around the country. If you’re in the area, join Domaine Serene as we showcase our incredible Rockblock Syrah at the Rhone Rangers tasting in San Francisco March 15-16, 2008.

We’ve received some incredible press in the past and 2008 is off to the right start with some excellent reviews. The most recent issue of Wine Spectator magazine gave our 2004 “Mark Bradford Vineyard” Pinot Noir 93 Points, and our 2005 “Yamhill Cuvée” Pinot Noir 92 Points. These wines are available for purchase now and are extremely limited. Get them before they’re gone!

In the spirit of anticipation, we have some exciting additions coming to the website for spring. Watch for our new “food & wine pairings” section. We are delighted to have some celebrated, professional chefs AND some of our enthusiastic foodie case buyers working on pairing our wines with their favorite foods. The pairings will be featured every month and then archived so that you can come back and visit the web-site and enjoy trying some exciting new recipes with our fantastic wines. So, while you are waiting for spring to be sprung, hunker down, indulge in some great comfort food and, as always, drink more Domaine Serene!
