Product Notes

Domaine Drouhin Oregon Laurène Pinot Noir is an exceptional wine hailing from the fertile vineyards of Oregon. This sophisticated red reveals tantalising layers of dark fruit, embodying plums, cherries, and hints of earthy undertones. Each sip escalates into a symphony of flavour, with notes of rich spice and a smooth, silky finish. Matured in French oak, this elegant Pinot Noir exudes complexity, embodying a delicate balance between crisp acidity and subtle tannins. Aged to perfection, it is a feast for the senses, offering an extraordinary tasting experience synonymous with the illustrious Domaine Drouhin reputation.

Tasting Notes

In many ways, the 2018 Laurène embodies what we love most about wines from the Dundee Hills. Offering beautiful clarity and a garnet color on approach, the aromatics brim with notes of dried red cherry, spice, wild herbs, earth, and subtle oak. Characteristically elegant, the wine evolves on the palate, moving seamlessly from its pomegranate welcome into its detailed lines of clove, white pepper, and cranberry. As always, cellaring the Laurène over the next 5-15 years will be well rewarded
