2018 Dominus, Napa Valley, California, USA

The flagship 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon checks in as 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot brought up in 40% new French oak. With an essence of Cabernet-like character in its darker currants, green tobacco, cedar, graphite, and floral aromas and flavours, this gorgeous wine is full-bodied and has bright yet integrated acidity, polished tannins, and a great, great finish. 

It’s just gorgeously put together and a magical, flawless wine. It will take a decade to hit maturity but will evolve for 40-50 years in cold cellars. It is as good as it gets in classic, age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon!

Drink 2031 - 2068.
