這支多明納斯2012展現出產區特有的力量與純淨感。香氣層次豐富：黑莓、黑醋栗帶出熟果甜感，伴隨薰衣草、雪松、香料與些許礦物氣息。入口飽滿而有彈性，果實濃郁卻不厚重，單寧圓潤細緻、口感滑順，收尾長而優雅。 田間以Napanook莊園果園為核心，採用嚴格的人工採收與分級，注重土壤與植株平衡，讓每一串果實都能表現出其土地特質。釀造上走極簡路線：精挑果串、光學分選、溫和浸漬與定期人手換桶，約二成新橡木增加細緻香氣而不蓋住果味。最終酒款兼具力量與優雅，適合現在慢慢醒酒或繼續陳放以換取更細緻的發展。
A commanding expression from Dominus’ estate vineyard, this 2012 shows deeply concentrated dark fruit layered with complex aromatic lift. Notes of crème de cassis and black cherry are joined by lavender, cedar, graphite and a spice box nuance. On the palate it is full-bodied and opulent yet finely tuned: energetic fruit layers, ripe grainy but polished tannins and balancing freshness lead to a long mineral‑laced, elegant finish. Producer notes emphasize purity of site, estate-bottled provenance and a wine that gains further complexity with time. Winemaking is restrained and meticulous: thorough hand sorting, optical berry sorting, gentle pump-overs to extract aromas and colour, and hand racking barrel-to-barrel on a three‑month cycle. Barrel ageing included modest new oak influence (about 20%). Vineyard and vintage: fruit is sourced exclusively from the Napanook estate, managed for concentration and clarity. The 2012 season offered even budbreak, steady warm summers without extreme heat, and a slow, homogenous ripening that yielded rich, expressive fruit. Production was limited and attentive—this is an estate wine that reflects site specificity and careful cellar handling.
