1986 and still room to grow. Lots of brilliant red fruit on the nose. Oak is faint but there. Hints of irony blood and band aid. Palate leans more towards darker fruit with fine tannins and tangy acidity. Lovely. Two bottles tasted with consistent notes.

1986 vintage. Softer than I anticipated, particularly given some of the literature out there on this era of the Dominus wines. But she held up beautifully and was a pleasure to enjoy alongside a 1985 Marston Cabernet from the hills. Much life remaining!

‘86 showing well! On the downhill slide but still an impressive wine. Color and texture is there but fruit is fading.
