2014 Monogram

Pinot Noir

Overview

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.

The 2014 Monogram offers a complex profile of aromas. Rainier cherries and essence of cigar box leap out of the glass to delight your senses. This brooding wine is deeply layered and mouth-coating with dense, luscious, dark juicy red fruit characteristics. Balanced acidity and smooth rounded tannins make this wine extremely age-worthy. Monogram is a wine that will continue to build depth and richness for years to come.

2015 Grand Cheval

Syrah/Pinot Noir Blend

Overview

To make Grand Cheval we take the best characteristics of two very different varietals, Syrah from the Walla Walla Valley, and our own Pinot Noir grapes from the Dundee Hills, and blend them in perfect harmony to create our own version of the ideal "steakhouse wine." This wine is substantial enough for the richest of dishes, yet soft enough to please any palate.
