Generous dark cherry and blackberry fruit leads the 2015 Dominus Estate Napanook, layered with notes of plum, cocoa, and a subtle herbal savoriness. The palate is medium to full in body, plush yet structured, with fine, polished tannins that carry a long, confident finish. This vintage shows both immediate charm and the depth to reward mid-term cellaring.
Grilled ribeye with rosemary, roast lamb with garlic and thyme, wild mushroom ragù over polenta

Napanook by Dominus Estate is the estate’s more approachable Cabernet Sauvignon–based Bordeaux blend from the historic, dry-farmed Napanook vineyard in Yountville, Napa Valley, crafted for earlier drinking than the flagship Dominus yet still capable of a decade or more of aging. Typically combining Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it emphasizes vibrant dark fruit, smooth, polished tannins, and a medium‑bodied, food‑friendly structure that expresses “Napa terroir with Bordeaux spirit.”
