W&S Wine & Spirits: 91 Points
A selection of estate blocks, “Domaine” often reflects the estate’s cool coastal proximity. The 2016 starts off quiet and mannered, with scents of cinnamon, mocha and Christmas spice. The flavors are sleek and fleshy at once, the rich cherry core edged in smoky orange-peel notes.

Aromas of plum, cherry, mushroom and vanilla with cedar undertones. Medium-bodied with plush tannins and fresh acidity. Spicy and vibrant with juicy, slightly sweet character on the palate. Supple finish. Drink now.
