It's a stealth/new wine from Mouiex. Very stylish and concentrated.

This is good juice. Newish Moueix label - sister wine to Dominus. Cool funk on the palate not usually found in this part of Napa. Dense, extracted, but well rounded with tannins. I wouldn't touch for 5 years minimum. Good quality tho.

Much more flamboyant than Dominus. Rich, ripe, everything the California Cab drinkers desire.

Fantastic can. Smooth with low low tannin and lots of oak.

Ментол, эвкалипт, лавр, графит, сухая чёрная смородина, черноплодка. Хорошая структура, поддерживаемая точной, в меру напряженной кислотностью. Танины заметны, но не чрезмерны. Ещё молодо, плотно, но без лишней компрессии. Одновременно сдержанно и выразительно.
