Best wine in all the willamette valley! Michael is awesome!
Give Carl a raise! He deserves it!
We had a great time when we visited the Winery in August. Outstanding and professionally trained Somms put Domaine Serene into a league of their own. We joined their wine club, and had some shipping issues with our first order. The box was dropped, and a couple of the bottles were damaged. Kristi Morin and Jesse Gardner from the Wine Club jumped right in and immediately replaced those bottles. Their personal service was over and above, and greatly appreciated. We belong to almost a dozen wine clubs, and nobody delivers the personal service that Domaine Serene does. Thank you for wonderful wines, great service and a commitment to your customers.
We came for a private tasting and private tour of the winery with a a member. Our sommelier was “Luke” and Luke was a rockstar. He was so personable and great at showing and explaining so many facts and history about the winery. He kept it light and fun! We can’t wait to come back for another tour with him.
We are members of Domaine Serene but this was our first in person visit. It was an amazing experience from start to finish. The setting is stunning, with views that are picture book quality. The facilities are first class, perfectly complementing the idyllic scenery.
Michael guided our tasting, and he was wonderful. He entertained us throughout the 2 hours with his knowledge of the wines, vineyards, and history. It was truly a top rate experience. It was fun and informative to taste the wine itself, having enjoyed some already through the club. Michael presented them in a way that was approachable for any level of wine enjoyer and brought something to the tasting of the bottles that was unique and fun.
Highly recommend not only the wine club but also an in person visit - we hope to get back soon!
If I could give this winery more stars - I would! The location is spectacular, and the tasting room and patio are gorgeous. We had such a beautiful experience. Zack, their Sommelier, led us through an extensive tasting experience that included Flagship wines, Member exclusive wines and several others. We enjoyed everything! My husband and I are wine connoisseurs and enjoy trying new wines to add to our Cellar. We found many favorites during our tasting with Zack. We are sure to return. And will order some of our favorites now we are back home. Highly recommend! Make sure you arrange an appointment.
Worst experience I have ever had.
Some of the best wines in the area can be had here. The service here is excellent and attentive. You can expect to learn a lot about their wines and the history of the vintages they have to offer. The atmosphere is pristine, although my only the hedgerows were not recently cut during my last visit and that made it was hard to see the hills when sitting on the patio. Also it might be important to expect that the detailed service means that time between pours might be more than what you are used to, so allot some additional time here.
Amazing wines, excellent service. Darko provided an incredible experience.
Staff is so nice, especially Sean!

A beautiful winery and surrounding countryside. The hosts were a touch on the pretentious side, but only to the extent that I found it funny. Service was reasonably paced, and I found the $60 self guided tasting fee to be excessive compared to other wineries. Unfortunately, we didn’t like any of the wines from the tasting enough to buy a bottle, but still enjoyed our experience nonetheless.
Zachary was an absolutely excellent guide, showcasing the different attributes and subtleties of their wines. These wines are highly rated for a reason. The property and feel of this winery is of the higher-end ones in Napa or France.
Made a reservation for this winery because of the known wine, views, and local farms to source for their charcuterie and cheese boards. When we arrived, we were greeted with a splash of brut and then had a table outside on the patio. While I was in the bathroom, the waiter dropped off the first two tastings, and “didn’t have time to talk to us about them”. For $60 a tasting, this is not ok. We’re here to learn about wine, not overpay on poor experiences. I also really dislike wineries dropping off two wines at a time, they get warm and it feels rushed. We then sat there with the wine in our glasses waiting for him to come back to tell us about the wine. After 40 minutes we left. Michael only had 3 other tables, there’s no reason he couldn’t have been attentive to our reservation for 2 people. Additionally when you book the reservation states there’s a wine tour in the cellar and that was never mentioned or done. The reservation is also only 90 min long, so waiting 40 plus minutes to even get started isn’t enjoyable.
Fancy High class building, great wines, expensive prices, knowledgable staff. Enticing member ship offering.
Absolutely grand experience. The setting is beautiful, the building is elegant, the service is excellent and attentive yet chill and human. The flight of wine we had is the best I have had in the region. So glad we came here.
