| Robert Parker | 94 RP - 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 |
