Dominus--Vintage 1991 California, Napa Valley. Moueix Lot 758 in original wooden case with second hand lid Tasting note: 6,500 cases were produced of this potentially perfect wine. While this vintage of Dominus contains no merlot in the blend, every time I taste it I am reminded of a great vintage of Pétrus such as 1982, 1989 or 1990. Although different, the 1991 Dominus possesses an extraordinary intensity, remarkable opulence, and amazing fruit extraction, all welded to a full-bodied structure..... approachable young because of its sweet tannin, yet it exhibits the potential to last for 25 years. Perhps the 1994 will rival it, but for now, the 1991, is unquestionably the greatest Dominus, as well as a potential legend in the making. Robert Parker The Wine Advocate. Issue 99, 1995. 1 impériale per lot
