Just a special experience. The nose was powerful and dynamic evolving beautifully over 30 minutes. A smokey phase, a pine phase, and a strong floral phase. The palate was balanced and smooth. The fruit was dead but resembled fruit leather. Two bottles opened, one had grip left, the other didn't. #moutonrothschild #grandcruclassé #2ndgrowth #bordeaux #pauillac #1928 #ctbucklinwine — 9 years ago
Solid, light tasty, not grassy, not fruity. Z & Yooly both like. — 11 years ago
Great wine for the price. High acidity with notes of tobacco and licorice. — 11 years ago
For 12 bucks, this is an awesome value wine. Solid and fruity, but also versatile enough to drink with just about anything you can dish up (or even by itself). — 11 years ago

For centuries now, the luscious, bright, all-encompassing delight of Champagne has been used to toast happy occasions. Often times a decent bubbly does the trick, but other times, something grander deserves to be poured.
Dom Pérignon (named after the monk who put Champagne on the map), a 2000 vintage. It's the kind of Champs one drinks upon making the decision that wine is not just a hobby, not just a passion, but a career. — 10 years ago
round but with balanced acidity, like eating fresh cherries while biting your lip and drawing blood. tasted young despite being an older vintage than the other rioja we tasted. I kind of expected more from a GR. might need decanting. I recall preferring the '01 or '07. — 11 years ago

1982 vintage. Wonderful peppery and herbal aroma, great acidity still and dried fruit flavors. Great wine. With Tim O'Rourke and other friends. At Ripple. — 11 years ago
Top bottle of wine. Maybe not quite as deep as some of the other years but loved it just the same. I need another. — 11 years ago
Good with spicy chili — 11 years ago
Dark ink opaque purple red violet color, tart berry, tart black fruit nose, rich, concentrated, black fruit, tart berry, tar palate, long finish. — 12 years ago
Damn good but still way young...layered with roasted earth, black currant and blackberry compote and a good bit of smoke. Warm year so maybe a bit more clunky than other vintages but Dominus is really fabulous!! One of the few Napa wines I really like with serious age....half hour in decanter and candied cherries and red fruits coming out...enjoying this one! — 9 years ago
Full of flavor and warm tones. — 10 years ago
Most tannic of other '86s in the lineup but still plenty of fruit and spice. More rustic than elegant. — 10 years ago
Love this. Not like any other california sb and its worth the price — 11 years ago
Super Tuscan at its finest. Cab elements were in the forefront and the other varietals were a strong supporting cast. Lots of $$$ but worth it at least once or twice. Especially vs Antinori... — 11 years ago
