Parker about Dominus 2014
The 2014s, where the production of Napanook was only 2,200 cases and Dominus slightly more than the 2015 at 4,000 cases, was another early harvest, although somewhat later than 2015. The 2014 Dominus, which is 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot really struts its stuff. Moueix's belief in dry farming seems to be paying off with stronger and stronger vintages, each successive year, and the 2014 is a sexy, opulent, layered, multidimensional wine with notes of red and blackcurrant, cedar wood, tobacco leaf, spice box and licorice . The color is a dense plum/ruby/purple, much like the Napanook. This is a beauty that is already drinking gorgeously – as most 2014s are – and will continue to evolve for 25 or so years.

Dominus 2014
Crafted by Christian Moueix from the historic Napanook Vineyard in Yountville, the 2014 Dominus Estate is a benchmark Napa Valley wine celebrated for its Bordeaux-inspired poise, complexity, and timeless elegance.
In the glass, the 2014 Dominus displays a deep ruby-purple hue.
The bouquet is captivating and multidimensional, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild blackberry, and cassis interwoven with bitter chocolate, blond tobacco, crushed gravel, graphite, bay leaf, and subtle savoury spice.
On the palate, the 2014 Dominus unites architectural structure with seamless, cashmere-like suppleness. Ripe, ultra-fine tannins and balanced acidity frame a concentrated core of dark berry fruit, cedar, and earthy minerality, carrying through into a long, resonant finish.
Approachable earlier than the monumental 2013 yet built to evolve gracefully over two to three decades, the 2014 Dominus pairs superbly with prime roast beef tenderloin, herb-crusted rack of lamb, or aged cheeses.

Information about the winemaker:
The history of the Dominus winery is inextricably linked to the history of Christian Moueix, one of the greatest and most well-known winemakers of our time. With more than five decades of experience in wine production in the legendary wine-growing region of Bordeaux and around 40 years of experience on the soil of the Napa Valley in the USA, there is probably no other winemaker in the world who has such an incomparable insight into the old and the new Weinwelt has won like Moueix.
