Domaine Serene Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir 2021
The 2021 Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir is a refreshing and elegant vintage. It's made from 100% estate-grown grapes and has a silky texture that's perfect for pairing with poultry or duck confit. The nose offers rose petals, wild strawberry, strawberry candy, confectionary, Italian fine leather, and hibiscus. On the palate, it's maraschino cherry sweet with a light body and lifted tannins. It finishes with a lovely blueberry compote and velvety texture that lingers long after the last sip.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Evenstad Reserve, opens with broody tar and forest floor aromas before revealing brighter tones of raspberry jam, cinnamon and blood orange. The light-bodied palate features concentrated, savory red fruit framed by silky tannins and bright acidity, and it has a very long, spicy finish.

The aromas coming from this glass of wine are as clean and fresh as wintertime alpine air, with lilacs and wet stones encircling a bushel of ripe blackberries and a handful of lemons. The wine’s black-cherry, cola and citrus flavors are backed by soft acidity and somewhat chewy tannins.

A supple texture shapes abundant black and red fruit in this well-concentrated, polished and composed wine. A full body and suede-textured tannins give it a nice heft on the palate. Drink or hold.
