Product Description
DR96 "A perfumed and refined nose of rose petal, orange rind, raspberry and coriander flower. This elegant nature continues through the palate, which is lacy and plush, but becomes quite rustic on the finish. Continues to evolve over hours and days, never showing itself the same way twice. Still laying in wait, although perfectly enjoyable now." ML for DR Feb 2021
LP95 "A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 9% Petit Verdot, the 2011 Dominus is deep garnet in color. It springs from the glass with bright, youthful notes of kirsch, black raspberries, redcurrant jelly, and red roses, leading to suggestions of wild sage, damp soil, and crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is vivacious and spritely with soft, fine-grained tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with a red berry lift." LPB for TWI Mar 2023
