This unique wine captivates with an initial burst of orange chocolate on the nose, paving the way for a complex tasting journey. The intriguing interplay of spices and hints of orange rind creates a dynamic, layered palate, with more savory, spicy character for a rich textural experience. The grapes' extended hang time in the elevated, cool location emphasizes spicier grape aspects, resulting in a powerful yet finesse-filled wine. As the welcoming vineyard for visitors at The Clubhouse, it boasts a bold yet approachable personality. With over a decade of aging potential, it will evolve gracefully, offering a rewarding, festive experience that lingers on the palate now and for years to come.

The Land
Our Winery Hill Vineyard greets our guests as they arrive at The Clubhouse at Domaine Serene in the Dundee Hills which ranges from 775 to 930 ft in elevation. The grapes are grown solely on Dijon clones and slowly ripen in the cool air above Dundee, making this highly complex Pinot Noir. This vineyard produces wine with excellent aging potential, balanced acidity, elegant tannins, and a lingering finish.
Winemaker Notes
This wine originates from the first two blocks of vines at the entrance of our Clubhouse tasting room in Dundee Hills. Symbolizing more than just a warm welcome to our guests, this vineyard serves as a daily salutation to the entire team at Domaine Serene. Its presence embodies not only a gracious invitation into our extraordinary wine experience but also encapsulates the collective spirit that infuses our daily endeavors.
