Max score: 98

Drink To: 2031-2046

In the 1960s, Christian Moueix, who was a student in the United States, analysed the unique potential of Napa Valley with close interest. Since then, his experience, know-how and attention to detail have allowed him to recreate another great wine: Dominus, which has been produced since 1983 in Yountville, in the unique Napanook terroir.

Antonio Galloni

The 2021 Dominus is a powerful, tightly-coiled wine that is holding back quite a bit of reserve. There's real depth and resonance waiting to emerge as the wine matures. Floral overtones and bright acids confer energy to a core of red/bluish fruits. Readers will find a Dominus built more on linear precision rather than opulence. It is hugely impressive in this tasting, with a long chalky finish.

95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc. Tasted blind. Dark, lustrous purplish crimson. Slightly raw fruit on the nose that seems less ripe than most others in this tasting of top 2021 Napa Cabs. Sweet and satin-textured initially on the palate and a very drying finish. At the moment this is a collection of unrelated elements. Very youthful. But it grew in the glass to be much more impressive. Long. (JR)
