2002 Domaine Serene "Jerusalem Hill" Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

SKU #1014087

90 points Wine Spectator: "Firm and chewy, with tarry, mineral-scented, ripe blackberry and cherry flavors that persist on the generous finish. Best from 2007 through 2012. 300 cases made." (05/05) From a new site for Domaine Serene. In the summer of 1999 this 90-acre property, called Jerusalem Hill, was purchased to provide additional diversity in soil type, elevation, and climate. Jerusalem Hill is located in the eastern side of the Eola Hills, yet still in Yamhill County with all the other estate vineyards. The property is solely planted to Pinot Noir in various clone types. Destined to become a collectors' item!

Additional Information:

Varietal:

Pinot Noir

- The Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in the cooler climate of Burgundy, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne that is used in all of the Côte d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Germany, the U.S., Australia, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success. Here is a list of our bestselling Pinot Noir.
Country:

United States

- When people consider domestic wine, they normally think about the state of California. The fine viticultural Region within California, including the Napa Valley, Sonoma, Santa Cruz Mountains, Mendocino and Santa Barbara, are capable of growing grapes of world-class quality. But there's plenty of fabulous wine coming from other states, too. Oregon, Washington and New York are also causing eyebrows (and glassware) to be raised around the world.

Sub-Region:

Oregon

- Highly touted for its Pinot Noirs, Oregon is part of the up-and-coming winemaking industry in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Most of Oregon is directly affected by the climate coming off of the Pacific Ocean, giving it mild winters and wet summers. This makes it a difficult place to ripen grapes, but some say that the harder grapes have to struggle, the more complex they will turn out to be. Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are two important and successful grapes grown in Oregon.
