Dominus Estate 2023
100 Points, Lisa Perotti-Brown
The Wine Advocate’s former Editor-in-Chief gone solo act, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, now of the Wine Palate is the first to throw down the gauntlet for the 2023 vintage. She already gave this wine 100 points and called out a “full-bodied palate” that “is both generous and energetic, displaying an impressive array of savory and earthy nuances.”I’m telling you now, she won’t be alone with the 100-point reviews. This wine has it all and it’s not even remotely ready for the main stage yet. Give this 5-10 years, and you won’t believe what a special bottle you will have collected.

100 Points, Lisa Perotti-Brown, Wine Independent
“The 2023 Dominus is a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Petit Verdot. Opaque purple-black in color, it slowly unfurls to reveal a powerful core of blackcurrant jelly, ripe black plums, and fresh blueberries, followed by hints of menthol, crushed rocks, dried sage, black truffles, and black olives. The full-bodied palate is both generous and energetic, displaying an impressive array of savory and earthy nuances among the dense black fruit layers and a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and beautiful tension, finishing with epic length.”
The 2023 vintage in Napa Valley is being hailed as a “unicorn” year where a long, cool growing season collided with a late, warm autumn to produce wines of staggering purity, structural precision, and natural balance.
Don’t take it from me, take it from three of the greatest winemakers in the world. Thomas Rivers Brown called it “the vintage we’ve been waiting for.” World-famous consultant Philippe Melka labeled it “truly a gift.” Aron Weinkauf at Spottswoode made the bold claim that “These wines will live for 50 years.”
This exceptional release, crafted by renowned winemaker Christian Moueix, exemplifies the perfect balance of power and elegance that has made Dominus Estate legendary. With 100 points already from Lisa Perotti-Brown, this one is placed at the very summit of wine excellence.
