Solid wine for what it is. Quite young on initial approach. Mellows out with an hour or so of bottle decanting.

Not the first time I’ve had this wine. This current bottle was past it’s prime. It felt slightly deconstructed and had a faint oxidized finishing note. I’m hoping it’s a bottle variation and not a sign that this vintage is on its tail end of life.

Drinking well, but I wouldn’t age this much longer. It doesn’t feel like a wine that will hold another 10-20 years.

Great wine. Drank next to 2017 Dominus and it didn’t quite match up but also didn’t get blown out of the water.

Aside from the 2013 which is in a class of its own, this may be the best Dominus of the last 15 years.
