The Story

Dominus is created by French winemaker Christian Moueix, who crafted the wines of Chateau Petrus (a bottle of which recently sold at auction as one of the most expensive wines ever sold). The Dominus estate owns the historic Napanook Vineyard that was the base of so many of the historic Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignons of the 1950s and 1960s. It is considered one of the finest reds of Napa Valley.

Wine Information

DOMINUS 2006

The Dominus 2006 epitomizes the best qualities of Cabernet Sauvignon in a top terroir of Napa Valley. At first, the wine displays tremendous power. Then, it surprises by the purity of the fruit and the lingering finesse. It clearly possesses a fantastic aptitude for aging. We recommend decanting the wine prior to serving, to allow it to develop its full potential. This is especially important when serving young Dominus wines.

Starting to take on the tertiary character of ripe fruit and savory components with dusty tannins. Full and round with a lovely texture and a light salty, meaty and tobacco character. Forest floor. Sweet and sour. Just opening.

Auf wenig Gegenliebe stieß ausgerechnet der 2006 Dominus aus der Imperiale. Der hatte zwar eine tiefe, jugendliche Farbe und eine schöne, fleischige Nase, wirkte aber am Gaumen unnahbar und etwas flach und verschlossen. Den konnte unser Star-Sommelier nur bei denen unterbringen, die mal gerade nicht aufpassten und plötzlich wieder ein volles Glas vor sich hatten. Ergab bei mir zunächst für einen Dominus mickrige WT92. Erst tief in der Nacht konnte ich dann zusammen mit Christoph das Dominus-Wunder bestaunen. Nach wohl weit über fünf Stunden in der großen Karaffe, in der sich noch ein paar Liter befanden, blühte dieser Dominus auf. Zur fantastischen Frucht aus Schwarzkirsche und Brombeere kam eine einfach geile Fruchtsüße, die jüngere, kalifornische Boliden oft so unwiderstehlich macht, die Tannine wirkten weicher, da kamen enormer Druck und Länge am Gaumen, locker WT96. Klar, das war nicht mehr der Dominus der 80er und 90er mit der klassischen Bordeaux-Stilistik. Dominus war inzwischen voll in Kalifornien angekommen, mehr Camus als Pauillac, aber sehr faszinierend. Da hätte ich jetzt mit Christoph und seinem Vater, diesem spendablen Gastgeber, die Nacht zum Tag mach sollen, um die Entwicklung dieses Dominus bis zum Frühstück weiter zu verfolgen. Aber ich muss wohl an meiner Kondition wieder etwas arbeiten.
