RATINGS

100Robert M. Parker Jr.

...stunning set of aromatics consisting of white chocolate, blackcurrant liqueur, cedarwood, graphite, incense and melted licorice is followed by a beautifully integrated, seamless, full-bodied classic...

97+ Vinous / IWC

...a real stunner. The Grand Vin has all the richness and texture of the Roberta's but with a little more verve, energy and overall structure. Beams of tannin and acidity provide the backdrop... ...fabulous sense of vibrancy...

96-99Stephen Tanzer

...Urgent crushed blackcurrant, licorice and wild herb aromas are lifted by violet and iris notes. Superconcentrated and utterly seamless in the mouth but with a magically light touch to the blueberry, licorice and mineral flavors...

REGION

United States, California, Napa Valley, Yountville

Yountville AVA is just west of Stags Leap and north of Oak Knoll. It is centered around the town of Yountville, named for George Yountville, who planted the area’s first vineyard in 1836. The district received appellation status in 1999 and it includes 4,000 vineyard acres. It is known for tannic Cabernet Sauvignon that has a reputation for aging well. Dominus Estate, formerly Napanook Vineyard, is one of the most prestigious producers in Yountville, and in all of Napa Valley.

TYPE

Red Wine, Cabernet Sauvignon

One of the most widely grown grape varieties, it can be found in nearly every wine growing region. A cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. It’s a hardy vine that produces a full-bodied wine with high tannins and great aging potential.
