| | This bottle of pinot exhibited a clear medium ruby color, with initially muted aromatics. On the nose I detected raspberries and a hint of spice, and it was not terribly complex. The wine on the palate had a smooth texture with well-balanced fruit and acidity, and just the right amount of tannins. Though aromatically it was lacking, the wine was tasty. A wonderful complement to the salmon we made for dinner, but rather pricey at $35. 89pts. | | | |

| | Jaime, thanks for the note! Year in/out, Domaine Serene is one of my favorite PN's. It's usually difficult to find here in Cincy but I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled. | | | |

| Thanks for the notes. I have one bottle of the Yamhill.
Interesting the price differences---I bought mine in San Francisco for $27.99.
Here are some notes that I found on the web:
The Yamhill Cuvée is a blend of Pommard (85%), Wadenswil (10%) and Dijon (5%) clones of Pinot
Noir sourced from Estate Vineyards in Yamhill County. Almost 70% of the fruit comes from the
Evanstad Vineyard in the Red Hills. The 2000 is an excellent wine with tons of fruit, velvety texture
and a ripe, soft finish. Drinking great now! | | | |
