When you arrive at the entrance to Oregon's Domaine Serene the beautiful setting, the estate vineyard and the Tuscan villa-style winery will immediately get your attention. If the scenic vista does not get your attention then the wines sure will. Domaine Serene is home to award winning wines. Critics, such as Wine Spectator and Wine Advocate, regularly award scores of 90-plus to Domaine Serene wines. In an area known for its Pinot Noir Domaine Serene is considered to be producing some of the area's top Pinot Noir. They also known for their Chardonnay. During an August visit to Dundee Hills wineries we dropped by Domaine Serene.
As we passed beyond the entrance we could not help but admire the estate vineyard. We continued up the hill towards the winery.
After we passed the estate vineyard and arrived at the parking lot we followed the directions to the winery's tasting room.
Soon we arrived at the winery and walked down the stairs to the tasting room.
Domaine Serene offer two wine tasting options in their tasting room. You can select from a Classic Tasting Flight or an Estate Tasting Flight.
The tasting room offers seating for small group tastings.

Private tastings can be arranged. You can also schedule a tour of the winery.
Most visitors to Domaine Serene will notice a woolly mammoth sculpture, made of weathered steel with bronze tusks. While there are rumors about how the sculpture arrived, there is no mistake about the wines and the overall ambiance of this winery. Domaine Serene's estate vineyard, stunning winery and great wines will definitely get your attention. Enjoy the grandeur of Domaine Serene but do not forget to spend some time with the woolly mammoth.
