2021 Dominus ‘Napanook’ Red Blend Napa Valley

JS97 This shows a lot of class with aromas of blackcurrants graphite blueberries dried flowers black truffles and a touch of forest floor. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with seamless tannins that goes on and on. Endless. Blackcurrants dark mushrooms and violets with hints of fresh rose stems and light herbs. Velvety texture. A blend of 92% cabernet sauvignon 6% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. Better after 2027.
JD95 The 2021 Napanook is one heck of a Napanook offering complex notes of currants cassis graphite leafy tobacco lead pencil and chocolate. Incredible on the palate its full-bodied and round with supple vibrant incredible tannins. This is easily the finest vintage I?ve tasted of this cuvée and it s the equivalent of many a Grand Vin from other producers.
