Product Description
RP99 "The 2009 Dominus is a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet colored, it rolls easily, sensuously out of the glass with evolving fruit notes of baked blackcurrants, plum preserves, mulberries and fruitcake plus underlying suggestions of charcuterie, camphor, chocolate-covered cherries and candied violets with just a touch of cast iron pan. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is an exercise in balance, with loads of emerging black fruit and earthy layers and a solid line of finely grained tannins, finishing very long with a perfumed lift."

LP98 "A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Petit Verdot, the 2009 Dominius is deep garnet in color. It comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant notes of blueberry jam, black cherry compote, and blackcurrant pastilles, followed by suggestions of aniseed, dark chocolate, tar, and fertile loam. The full-bodied palate is open and ready-to-go, featuring soft, silky tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with a skip in it step." LPB for TWI Mar 2023
JD98 "Deep ruby opaque colored, the 2009 Dominus is a killer bottle of wine made from 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc and the balance Petit Verdot. Loaded with notions of black currants, black cherries, graphite, lead pencil shavings, and crushed flowers, this beauty is full-bodied, deep, concentrated, and decadent. Perfectly balanced, pure and layered, it’s a sensational wine and you should count yourself lucky if you have bottles of this in the cellar. It will keep for another two to three decades."
