Domaine Serene Evenstad Reserve Chardonnay 2019
96 Points, James Suckling – 95 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate
I’m lucky to have a small amount of what was an exceptional vintage of Domaine Serene’s flagship white wine bottling, the Evenstad Reserve. Both James Suckling (96 points) and Parker’s Wine Advocate (95 points) fell hard for this wine. They raved about its the full mouthfeel that both one called “harmonious” and the other called “focused and tangy.” This has it all – approachability and elegance, with plenty of pure drinking ahead. The Wine Advocate suggested a drinking window of 2025-2035. That means this baby is just starting to hit its prime now!
Original price was: $80.00.$40.95Current price is: $40.95.

96 Points, James Suckling
“Aromas of oyster shell, baked lemon and aniseed. Full-bodied but tight. Steady and harmonious on the palate, with lovely length and balance. It’s driven, yet holds back at the finish. Textured, too. Delicious. Drink or hold.”
95 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate
“The 2019 Chardonnay Evenstad Reserve opens with matchstick tones that give way to delicate chamomile, beeswax and mushroom. The palate is focused and tangy with saline-tinged fruit, and there’s a notably long, shimmery finish. It deserves another 2-3 years in bottle to unwind. Drink 2025-2035.”
Ken and Grace Evenstad founded Domaine Serene Vineyards and Winery in 1989 when they purchased 42 acres of just-logged land in the Dundee Hills of Oregon and built a five-level, gravity flow winery to produce ultra-premium Pinot Noir. From there, they began an empire.
Today, Domaine Serene produces wines from six individual vineyard estates in the Willamette Valley planted exclusively to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Each estate offers a diversity of soils, clones, rootstocks, microclimates, slopes, and elevations that add distinguishing complexity and elegance to the wines.
The Evenstads now own over 1,000 acres in total, more than 360 of which are planted to vine in three AVAs of the Willamette Valley and are actively preserving Oregon White Oak trees and the biodiversity of the region. They have achieved LIVE certification, the highest certification in the world for sustainable viticulture. Domaine Serene’s wines have won many accolades and awards, including 250+ wines scoring 90 points or higher by Wine Spectator.
