Description

Napanook is an estate bottled wine from the historic Napanook Vineyard in Yountville, Napa Valley, made from grapes carefully selected for their lively fruit and soft tannins.

Notes of blonde tobacco and fresh cedar are integrated with lacy tannins. On the palate, the wine is bright and finishes with plum and mocha. A beautiful wine for pairing with beef, game or fish.

The 2011 vintage is composed of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, and 8% Cabernet Franc.

The Dominus Napanook 2011 is created to be consumed young, and enjoyed with food, but will also age well for more than a decade.  Christian Moueix recommends decanting young wines before serving to allow them to reach their full potential.
