Domaine Serene and Domaine Evenstad
It was an amazing day tasting through the new Domaine Evenstad wines as well as library releases from Domaine Serene. Today we share the epic wines from Domaine Serene and Domaine Evenstad. It was an electric end of day tasting at the top of the Dundee Hills. Domaine Serene invited me to taste with their winemakers who are making some of the best wines in Oregon. They also have a special collection of wines under their Domaine Evenstad label. This Burgundy house has 16 estate vineyards , including two Grand Cru sites across 15 acres of majestic countryside of the famed Côte de Nuits. It was back in 2015 that Domaine Serene founders Grace and Ken Evenstad purchased a storied château, winery, and vineyards in the Côte de Beaune of Burgundy. Set in the picturesque village of Santenay, the history of Château de la Crée traces its roots back to 1431, when it was built by Nicolas Rolin, Chancellor to Philip the Good, the Third Duke of Burgundy, and his wife, Guigone de Salins.

Domaine Drouhin Oregon
Here is the lights-out 2024 ‘Edition Limitee’ Chardonnay (OB, 97) by Domaine Drouhin. For years I have been inspired by the wines of Domaine Drouhin Oregon which was founded all the way back in the 1980s. Domaine Drouhin’s Robert Drouhin decided to purchase land towards the top of the Dundee Hills. This land was formerly littered with Christmas trees and wheat, and over time the Drouhin family began planting their first vineyards in Oregon. Robert’s daughter, Véronique, has served as DDO winemaker for many years, and her brother Philippe Drouhin took responsibility for viticulture. In 1988, DDO produced its first vintage, from purchased grapes, and in 1989 built the landmark, four-story gravity flow winery. I visited the winery a few weeks back and was blown away with the overall quality of their 2024 wines. 2024 was another warm vintage, one with few extreme temperatures. There were several standout wines and I was blown away with the 2024 Domaine Drouhin Oregon ‘Laurene’ Pinot N

Louis Roederer 'Cristal' Champagne
Here is the unforgettable 2018 Louis Roederer ‘Cristal’ Champagne (OB, 98). I won’t forget my last visit to Louis Roederer. After a long tour we had a fabulous tasting. At the time we finished our tasting with the thrilling 2013 ‘Cristal’ — a wine that truly was one of the finest wines made this vintage. Louis Roederer only produces their ‘Cristal’ Champagne in specific vintages that work for their style and the first ‘Cristal’ Champagne was created back in 1876 to satisfy the demanding tastes of Tsar Alexander II. The emperor asked Louis Roederer to reserve the House’s best cuvée for him every year as he was fond of Louis Roederer’s style. They began producing this wine to be distinguished by being presented in a flat-bottomed, transparent lead-crystal bottle. The ‘Cristal’ brand was named after the lead-crystal bottle, which is particularly transparent and luminous. Louis Roederer ‘Cristal’ Champagne blending is usually around 40% Chardonnay and 60% Pinot Noir, although that va

White Walnut
Chris Mazepink has a magical lineup of ‘24 wines for White Walnut. Today we share the beautiful wines of White Walnut. Created by the former winemaker and general manager of Archery Summit, Chris Mazepink, he smartly purchased land in the Dundee Hills back in 2013. Chris sensed the potential of the property as it is located adjacent to the vineyards of legendary Oregon wineries Domaine Drouhin and Archery Summit. Chris and his sons, Archer and Charles, cleared the land, by hand, in the summer of 2014 and then planted it to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in 2015 and 2016. They preserved the remaining walnut trees on the property that continue to produce fruit and are now well over 70 years old, standing stoic amongst the vines. He sees the immense potential in making wines that all come from the Dundee Hills AVA. The wines were sensational across the board as we talked everything from Chris’s upcoming marathon run to international soccer. The quality of his 2024 wines were extraordinary acro
