Really excellent. Dark red fruits, smoke, green pepper. Amazing depth of fruit and concentration. Benefited from a decant and only started to decline after 4.5 hours decanting. 7/2/2024

This was the best 85 Dominus I've had, and, surprisingly, one of the best from the 80s. More youthful than others, but still with some tannins, this bottle gave the impression that it might actually continue to improve for some years. Surprisingly aggressive for merlot, this wine might actually be just coming into its own, compared to later vintages where the merlot was blended out in favor of cabernet sauvignon. 8/7/2022
