Dominus--Vintage 1990
Napa Valley
Slight signs of seepage
"The spectacularly complex, rich 1990 Dominus magically combines the finest elements of the Napa Valley (strength, ripeness, and full body) with those of Bordeaux (finesse, elegance, and complexity). The opaque dark ruby/purple color suggests considerable intensity, low yields, and great richness. A huge, soaring bouquet offers aromas of cassis, black cherries, subtle herbs, vanillin, and spices. This full-bodied, voluptuously textured, superconcentrated, multidimensional wine is more flattering and opulent than previous Dominus vintages, which tended to be tannic as well as rich. Although approachable and already complex (I have already consumed 3 bottles), the magnificent 1990 Dominus should evolve gracefully for 20-30 years."
