Domaine Danica 2000 Chardonnay (Anderson Valley)

  1. $28
Smooth textured, with a silky mouthfeel. The wine is complex, with its hazelnut, pear, melon, herb and spice notes framed in toasty oak nuances. Bright, clean and long on the finish.  — J.M.  (12/15/2002)

Domaine Danica 1999 Zinfandel (Sonoma County)

  1. $33
Everyone who tasted this wine with me was drawn to the sexy, comforting nose—think hickory smoke and ham-bone stewiness layered with deep blackberry and brown sugar. On the palate, its black fruit is a little tangy, but is tempered by charred oak and caramel flavors. Well balanced, it closes with oak, green herb and a bit more caramel. Very dark and a bit…  — D.T.  (3/1/2002)

Domaine Danica 1999 Pinot Noir (Carneros)

  1. $32
Fruity, silky and simple, with jammy flavors of raspberries and red cherries, tobacco and spice. Feels light and pleasant in the mouth, but could use more stuffing.  — S.H.  (7/1/2003)

Domaine Danica 2000 Salzgeber Vineyard Zinfandel (Russian River Valley)

  1. $32
It’s all a matter of taste, but to me this wine is too hot, at 15% alcohol, and too sweet. The earthy, berry flavors are rich, and the tannin structure is complex, but it’s out of balance.  — S.H.  (7/1/2003)

Domaine Danica 2002 Heintz Ranch Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast)

  1. $25
This Chard is over the top. It’s got exceptionally high alcohol and the apricot flavors taste so baked, they’re almost stewed. The wine is dry and oaky, and represents an exaggerated style.  — S.H.  (3/1/2006)
