“Top 100 Wines 2011: Cheers to Thinking Small”
Dominus has raised the price on its Napanook this year, and maybe that’s fair, considering that what had been the Yountville estate’s second label is soaring in quality, enough to be considered on its own stellar merits. Impressively fine in its structure, with dark mineral, burnt sage and cassia accents to the savory, rich cassis fruit. There’s a maturity to the style of the ’08, a sign that it has grown up to be an impressive value as one of Napa’s top wines.”
