2012 Domaine Serene Pinot Noir Two Barns Vineyard

The 2012 Pinot Noir Two Barns is matured for 16 months in 61% new French oak from vines on the west side of the Dundee Hills. It has a lifted bouquet, quite floral and well defined with red berry fruit mixed with touches of chalk. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit and very nicely balanced with supple tannin; this is one of the more elegant 2012s from Domaine Serene with a sustained finish. This is one of the best single vineyard releases from Domaine Serene this vintage.
