98 points new release - limited                         
Rare new release from Dominus owner Christian
Moueix.

98 Points James Suckling: "Aromas of tangerine zest and blackcurrants, with the perfume of fresh flowers.  Full-bodied with a dustry texture to the tannins, Gorgeous. Nuanced and pure. Cabernet Sauvigon with a touch of cabernet franc and petit verdot. Need three or four years to open."

Dominus owner Christian Moueix had always been intrigued by the potential of southern Oakville’s terroirs, so when the Schmidt Ranch came onto the market in 2008, he jumped at the chance to acquire it.The property, renamed Ulysses, sits on an alluvial fan, revealing similar soils to the better-drained western part of Dominus’ Napanook vineyard. But climactically the site is very different. Here, the cooling influence of the San Pablo Bay is mitigated by the Yountville hills, so summer temperatures at Ulysses can be as much as four degrees Fahrenheit warmer.  Upon acquiring the property, an extensive programme of replanting began, informed by over 30 years’ experience at Dominus.
