Wine Type Table
Robert Parker RP94 - The 1997 Dominus Napanook Vineyard possesses a broad dense personality lots of volume and a long fat rich mid-palate and finish. The alcohol is listed at 14.1% and the finish pH is high 3.95 which makes the wine charming fleshy and silky-textured. I do not know how he does it but Christian Moueix is able to make Cabernet Sauvignon from the southern Napa Valley taste like a terrific Pomerol. The 1997 possesses considerable quantities of glycerin terrific fruit purity and gobs of black cherry and cassis flavors intermixed with licorice coffee and Asian spice notes. It is a stunning Dominus that will be drinkable when released and will age well for 15-20 years. RP
Wine Spectator WS 93 - A wine of substance and depth. Dark, rich and polished, with complex notes of earthy, meaty currant, anise, spice, cedar and leather, fanning out on the finish. Young and concentrated. Better than previously reviewed.
