The 2016 growing season was noted for being an excellent vintage, characterized by near-ideal weather conditions. This wine displays luscious dark red cherry, black raspberry, and pleasing barrel spices on the nose. Its silky texture and rich mouthfeel give way to a beautifully long and lingering finish. A wine that is both beautiful now or after aging decades in cellar.

About the ‘Aspect’ Collection

Our winemakers created the ‘Aspect’ series to showcase the art of the blend, capturing the terroir synergy from the diverse soils, elevations, orientations, and clonal selections within our vineyard estates. These wines are designed using a blend of grapes from our three highest-elevation estates in the Dundee Hills: the Evenstad Estate, Winery Hill Estate, and Triple Crown Estate, all situated within just a mile of each other. Despite their proximity, the vineyards offer unique characteristics and diversity within each estate that inspire our winemakers.

‘Aspect’ Pinot Noir Land

The ‘Aspect’ Pinot Noir is produced from the Evenstad Estate, featuring seven vineyard blocks with multiple exposures, dry-farmed on Jory soil at elevations ranging from 520 to 825 feet. At Domaine Serene, the journey of crafting exceptional wines began three decades ago with the discovery of the Evenstad Estate—a place of unparalleled beauty and potential. "We knew that we had found a very special place," shared Grace Evenstad, "Now, the Evenstad Estate is home to one of the finest collections of vineyards for producing distinct styles of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay."
