Winemaker's Notes:

 Comparable in quality to the 1991 Dominus, the 1994 is a deeply colored, dense wine with substantial but supple tannins. Luscious to drink now, its concentration suggests a long future.

Blen: 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot.

About Dominus:

 Dominus is produced by Christian Moueix and winemaker, Tod Mostero, from the historic Napanook vineyard in Yountville. Their goal is to produce a Bordeaux-blend red wine with elegance, complexity and balance that conveys a sense of place.
