1.5 hour decant (little fine/cloudy sediment). A gorgeous dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: very aromatic notes greet you with black plum/blackberry, forest floor, leather, floral, menthol, cedar, and milk chocolate. Taste: silky, rich, lush wine with brambly red plum, graphite, leather, chocolate mocha, and a spiced dried herbs/cigar box long finish. YUM! — a month ago

Flight 2 , wine 1 . Quite deep garnet , less terracotta rim . This had a whiff of oxidation about it at first which seemed to somewhat dissipate with time . Some dark spiced fruits , liquorice and menthol hints , cedar and sous bois . On the palate good ripeness and spiced dark cherry hints . Good acidity and rounded tannin . Nice length also , offering some spiced black fruits and menthol hints . Don’t think this is a pristine bottle but was enjoyable none the less , I was unsure at first if this was Napa , but coming back to it … and reading my notes , it became quite obvious . However I had this down as the Ch Montelena , not the Dominus — 9 months ago
