Château Cheval Blanc

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1988

Very nice but didn't quite live up to the Cheval Blanc pedigree. Incredibly aromatic, and quite fine tannins with a precise finish and good acid. But this lacks fruit in the mid palate and ultimately didn't quite get there for me. Maybe better a few years ago? — 9 years ago

Dominus Estate

Dominus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1999

Doesnt live up to the top vintages of the 90's but still an impressive wine. Plenty of stuffing to last several more years but don't see this getting much better. — 10 years ago

How cool is it when wines of exalted status live up to the billing.?This wine is exceptional. Ripe cassis fruit, juicy acid and a whiff of herbs. Yes herbs.. Classic stuff. Fucking delicious. — 10 years ago

Finally had a chance to try this famous wine (thank you @Matthew Rorick) and guess what? It's frickin' awesome. Brilliant balance, ripe fruit balancing laser acidity, it completely works. Really stunning. Pretty cool when such a highly sought after wine doesn't just live up to the hype but exceeds it. — 9 years ago
