Willamette, Oregon, 2004 Domaine Serene Pinot Noir Evenstad Reserve (donated from cellar). In vertical of 2011-2014 and 2004 Domaine Serene wines. Third place. Light-mid ruby, rim variation, viscous (13.5 alc.); red fruit, light stemmy nose; low-mid acids; mid tannins; good Pinot fruit; long semi-deep balanced finish. 16.5 UC Davis scale, 91 other scales.

Nez épanoui de prune confit, sel de céleri, de piment, ainsi que des notes de poussière, de pâte d'amandes et de vieille barrique. On dirait un nez d'Amarone / Valpolicella plutôt qu'un pinot ! Un vin velouté aux tannins soyeux. Fruit mature avec une acidité fraiche. Très fin avec un milieu de bouche qui éclate vers une longue finale juteuse. Saveur de réglisse également. Renversant comme vin vieillit ! 93+

Lots of red and black berry aromas and flavors, with fresh and maturing notes in good harmony. Slightly more sweet vs savory spice. Good weight and length. A trace of new oak still protrudes, but only barely detracts from the overall balance. Drinking very nicely now.

Delightful pinot, with bing cherry and black raspberry fruit, hints of spice and underbrush. Not as seamless as a fine burgundy, but well balanced and in a very good place.
