The red wine Dominus Estate, vintage 1986 from the winery Dominus Estate has been rated in 2011 with 86 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc from the region Napa Valley in United States.
Medium carmine garnet, ochre rim. Rather restrained on the nose, leafy nuances, little hint of fruit. Also restrained on the palate, taut texture, fresh acid structure, tends to be somewhat dry, appears over-extracted, has power but little charm, the Cabernet Franc used for the first time gives the wine a delicately soapy nuance. Its good times are probably already behind it. Artist's label: Jim Dine.
