Dominus Estate Napa Valley 2023 0,75l

Dominus Estate is a benchmark Napa Valley red that marries Californian ripeness with Bordeaux‑like precision. The blend, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with a dash of Cabernet Franc, comes from the historic Napanook vineyard at the foot of the Mayacamas range. Aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and plum are joined by violets, graphite, cedar and tobacco leaf. On the palate the wine is full‑bodied, dense and tightly knit, with firm but refined tannins and a cool, mineral edge. Layers of dark fruit unfold into a very long, focused finish. This is a cellar‑worthy wine that shines with fine cuts of beef, lamb, game and other richly flavoured dishes.

Twenty months in French oak give the wine depth, structure and refined harmony.

Dominus Estate

In the heart of Napa Valley, Dominus Estate in California feels more like stewardship than showmanship: Christian Moueix founded the project in the early 1980s on the historic Napanook Vineyard near Yountville, a site whose story reaches back to Napa’s beginnings in the 19th century. Farming is parcel-driven and exacting, with yields and picking dates tuned to the season’s rhythm....
