A powerful, tightly coiled expression with real depth. Lots of crushed stone, lead pencil and licorice aromas that are extremely aromatic and bright. Black cherries, cloves and purple fruit, too. Full body, ripe center-palate with a juicy interior.
Dominus Estate is the Napa Valley property of Bordeaux producer Christian Moueix. The wine is bottled from the historic Napanook Vineyard. Located at the foothills of the Mayacamas, the vineyard was planted in 1838 and continues to evolve under the stewardship of Christian Moueix. The estate's Bordeaux varietals benefit from the Yountville microclimate where temperatures are moderated by cool breezes from the San Pablo Bay. The resulting wine is a uniquely refined expression of this special terroir.
The 2021 vintage is voluptuous and vibrant, with dense evergreen forest floor, incense, profound depth, rich plum and an extremely long finish.
Blend: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc
