Red
Napa Valley, United States

Cassis and cedar show immediate appeal, but the wine falls short mid-palate where Dominus typically builds its greatest strength. Clean mineral notes and balanced structure can't mask the vintage's limitations. The finish drops away quickly, signaling this as a near-term drinking style rather than the estate's usual ageworthy form.

→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.
