Scoring a 99+ from Robert Parker, his review is as
follows:
Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Dominus slowly
emerges from the glass with profound notes of
blackcurrant cordial, ripe black plums, boysenberries and
Black Forest cake with hints of violets, star anise,
cracked black pepper, raspberry leaves and pencil lead,
plus a touch of garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, the
palate delivers impactful black fruit layers, creating a
beguiling sense of richness that is beautifully countered
by invigorating freshness and great poise, framed by
super ripe, plush tannins and beautiful tension,
finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note and,
finally, lots of mineral sparks. For all that it is at
the moment, one cannot help but feel that this 2018 is
holding something back. Give it a good five years in
bottle, at least, and then get set for what I suspect
will be a mind-blowing transformation over the next 30
years+.
