1990 Dominus EstateHere is a nice clean bottle of the 1990 Dominus Estate. Bottle fill is above bottom of neck. A tasting note - Robert Parker - "In a blind tasting, both the 1990 and 1991 wines were identified as being French by all eight tasters. I pulled these wines from my cellar to insert as ringers, so I was particularly miffed at not getting their origin correct. In retrospect, I suppose I was somewhat surprised by just how great the 1990 performed in comparison with the profound 1991. I mistakenly thought the 1990 was a Medoc, with its cedary, spicy, tobacco, blackcurrant-scented nose, sweet, full-bodied flavors, high tannin, and low acidity. It is a superb Dominus that may be just beginning to close down. Rich and powerful, it is capable of lasting for 20+ years. 2/1997 PREVIEW: Will go on Auction at Ebay January 3, 2008. |
