Dominus Estate Description
Tasting Note: Floral, jasmine tea, saddle leather, blue plum, weightless, lifted with a resonant finish.
Vintage Summary: The vintage was characterized by a dry winter and spring, with a total of 17” of rain from July 2019 to June 2020 (the historical average: 31”).
With warm temperatures in the spring and our well-drained soils, the vines developed balanced shoot growth. Summer temperatures were consistently warm, allowing for a rapid and homogenous ripening.
The month of August was marked by the LNU fires beginning on the 17th, which brought smoke to the Napa Valley. Twice we rinsed the grapes and the leaves to avoid any smoke taint.
Our harvest was just completing on the 27th of September, when the Glass Fire broke out.
Ultimately, our grapes were unaffected by the fires or the smoke.
Fastidious selection by hand as well as optical sorting were critical in eliminating any berries impacted by the heat.
Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon: 95%, Cabernet Franc: 5%
