RATINGS

96James Suckling

Lovely aromas of dark fruit, such as blackberries, together with mint, violets and graphite. Full-bodied and layered with freshness and brightness and a long finish.

95The Wine Advocate

...impressively intense notes of blackberry pie, stewed black cherries and cassis, plus wafts of fragrant earth and bouquet garni. Full-bodied, it has finely grained, plush tannins and a refreshing backbone supporting the generous black and blue fruit, finishing with a lively skip in its step.

94Vinous / IWC

...rich, heady wine...burst of jammy dark red fruit, spice, rose petal and mint gives the 2019 its exuberant, racy personality. Bright floral notes and insistent, yet well-integrated tannins support the finish.

93+ Jeb Dunnuck

It has a ripe, slightly lifted, exotic style in its black cherry and bluer fruits, violets, candied orange, and rocky mineral-like aromas and flavors...carry to a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, slightly firm...

The district received appellation status in 1999 and it includes 4,000 vineyard acres. It is known for tannic Cabernet Sauvignon that has a reputation for aging well. Dominus Estate, formerly Napanook Vineyard, is one of the most prestigious producers in Yountville, and in all of Napa Valley.
