Christian Mouiex's orgins are in Bordeaux. During his time at UC Davis, however, Mouiex fell in love with the Napa Valley. It was to be a lasting love, which flowered into Dominus, his California outpost.

93 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 1999
Deep red-ruby. Knockout, Bordeaux-like aromas of cherry syrup, plum, chocolate, mocha and brown spices, plus a faint vegetal complexity. Sweet, smooth and ripe, if not quite as dense as the extraordinary '91. Excellent acidity gives the flavors lovely clarity. Finishes firmly tannic and very long. Extremely suave wine.

Unbeatable from start to finish!!! This vintage has matured already, with a bold spicy start, fruity on the taste and a velvet like smooth finsh!! As good as the 1977 Stag's Leap and 1988 Mouton Rothschild!! It should get better as it ages too!!
