We created this exclusive, one-time offering to commemorate Grace and Ken Evenstad’s receipt of the wine industry’s highest honor, Wine Spectator’s Distinguished Service Award. Extremely rare, this Pinot Noir was meticulously crafted with a focus on enduring character and ageability from Domaine Serene’s finest estate properties. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this wine benefits the Wine Spectator Scholarship Foundation. 

A blend of our Estate vineyards spanning three Willamette Valley AVAs, this wine exhibits the distinct but harmonious qualities of each region. Inky dark in the glass and powerful on the palate, this statement-making beauty exhibits both red and dark cherry fruit notes on the nose, complemented with a soft touch of spice.  The sultry palate unfurls into a long finish, with firm tannins and bright acidity portending exceptional ageability. Pair this full-bodied and elegant Pinot Noir with grilled meats or barbeque, or cellar for decades to come.
