Dominus 2001

Cassis and graphite pour through with muscular intensity. Cedar, tobacco and crushed stone build layers of complexity. The structure is formidable. Dense tannins and driving acidity that will need years to integrate. A wine built for the long haul. Drink 2008-2025.

Dominus

Christian Moueix's Napa project, built on the historic Napanook Vineyard in Yountville, produces two Cabernet-based wines that sit among the valley's most age-worthy and structurally precise reds.
