The 2018 Pinot Noir Mark Bradford Vineyard comes from a west-facing slope planted in 1993 and is matured a year longer in bottle than the rest of the Domaine Serene Pinot Noirs. The 2018 is tremendously powerful and layered. It begins with layered aromas of cranberry, raspberry, star anise, charcuterie and Angostura bitters with earthy undertones. The palate is full-bodied with powerful, grainy tannins and focused acidity. It has generous, concentrated fruit and tremendous spicy accents across the flavorful finish.
