    April 14, 2024 - I absolutely love Dominus and this bottle was another reaffirmation of that. Bold and regal with vibrant red and dark fruit, fresh spices, and graphite. Fully engaging.

    January 23, 2024 - Tasted next to 2006 Ornellaia. Notes of cassis on the nose, mixed with ripe red fruit, tobacco, spices, hints of eucalyptus. Lovely structure, great acidity and really well balanced overall with good acidity and a vibrant, very persistent finish. Drinking well, but no rush at all. 94-96

    November 24, 2023 - Opened for another Friendsgiving, but was sadly corked. This was the third of three from Bob P., and only the first flawed bottle of the purchase. Thanks Bob.

    April 8, 2023 - Decanted for 2 hours. Nose of black currant, tobacco and a bit of forest floor.
    Very good and drinking well. Tannins are still pretty tight and chewy.
