Description

Like so many 2004s, the 2004 Dominus is a full-bodied wine showing brilliantly at age ten, with loads of complex cedar, kirsch, Christmas fruitcake, black currants and spice box. It has a creamy, opulent texture, but remains light on its feet. This sexy wine is showing exceptionally well and is best drunk over the next 10-15 years. Not one of the longest-lived wines from Dominus, but it is certainly at a wonderful point in its evolution right now.

This beautiful historic vineyard in Yountville produced 5,500 cases of Dominus from a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot. Increasingly, it is rare to find any Merlot being used in Dominus. Proprietor Christian Moueix said that the 2004 harvest stood out because of the extraordinary heat during the first several weeks of September. The harvest was one of the earliest ever - starting at the end of August and finishing before the end of September.
Score: 97 Robert Parker, April 2014

Simply "Yum"! Ready to go and full of concentrated red berries, liquorice, cigar box spice with violets on the nose. Sad to say goodbye but one can't drink everything in the cellar!

Score: 96 Mr Posle, April 2017

A recent Cellartracker note:

3/11/2017 - FELIXP LIKES THIS WINE: 95 Points
One of my Napa favourites. Yet again, they have fashioned a big, rich wine with precision and focus. Lots of chocolate, dark berries and mid-palate sweetness for the lover's of the New World versions of this variety, yet finishes long, savoury and refreshing, begging another sip.
Bravo!!
No hurry to drink this, might even improve a little over the next five years, but really don't see any reason to wait.
