April 14, 2023 - Dark red; really nice intense deep nose, nice sweet dark fruit, blackberry or blackcurrant or both (?); soft rounded attack, intense middle where licorice comes to mind and acidity kicks in, a slightly tart aftertaste but not much; I really like it, some others in the party found it a bit mellow - not sure I agree

November 5, 2022 - Second wine from Dominus Estate in Napa. Owned by Christian Mouiex, who also owns Petrus, Trotanoy, Hosanna. Mainly Cab Sauv with some Petit Verdot an Cab Franc. Lavender and ceddar in the nose. Very structured and smooth. Good wine, but maybe not quite what you would expect for this price.

October 9, 2022 - Some good fruit on nose, some bell pepper not too much. I don’t like the structure though. Low acid and tannins don’t match up with the alcohol. It’s not bad but not a 70-80$ bottle. Disappointed

July 26, 2022 - Earthy, dark fruits, a little dense on the palate. Slight bitterness toward the end. Alc in check.
