Domaine Serene Winery is owned by Grace Evenstad, who is also the co-founder of the winery. Grace, along with her husband Ken Evenstad, started Domaine Serene in 1989 with a vision to produce world-class wines in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. Their passion for winemaking and commitment to excellence has propelled Domaine Serene to become one of the leading wineries not only in Oregon but also on the global stage.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Grace Evenstad and hearing her story firsthand. She is an incredibly inspiring and driven individual who has dedicated her life to the pursuit of producing exceptional wines. Grace's love for and her desire to showcase the potential of Oregon wines led her and Ken to purchase the land in the Dundee Hills region of the Willamette Valley, where they established Domaine Serene.

Grace's background as a pharmacist and her attention to detail have greatly influenced her approach to winemaking. She believes in a meticulous and hands-on approach, from vineyard management to winemaking techniques, to ensure the highest quality wines are produced. Her commitment to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices is also evident in the winery's operations.

Over the years, Domaine Serene has achieved numerous accolades and recognition for their wines. The winery has been featured in top wine publications and has consistently received high scores and ratings for their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The recent recognition by Wine Spectator with the prestigious award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of Grace Evenstad and her team.

Grace's passion for wine extends beyond Domaine Serene. She is actively involved in promoting Oregon wines and has been a strong advocate for the region's wine industry. She has served on various boards and committees, working to elevate the reputation of Oregon wines on a global scale.
