1999 Dominus [California]
[Cabernet Sauvignon]
Posted by Mike P. on 2004-03-05 07:02:21 [Show TN in Text Format]
Chateau/Producer:Dominus
Country:USA
State:CA
AOC:Napa Valley
Region:Napa Valley
Wine Score:87
Notes:Blackberry, very spicy, substantive finish, a very bold, in-your-face. I felt this wine was not balanced though, and a bit acidic and bitter. Many felt this was the boldest wine in the flight. I have come to realize that I'm more a fan of the subdued, complex wines as opposed to the fruit forward stuff, even though I think many don't consider Dominus to be representative of a fruit-forward CA cabernet.
Tasting Date:2003-04-29
Varietal:Cabernet
Additional Notes:This was part of a wine tasting at Martin's Wine Cellar (Metairie, LA) featuring California Cabernets
Price US$:115.00
