Description
The generosity and charm of a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé
The estate
Located on the edge of Pomerol and on the western part of the Saint-Émilion appellation, Château La Dominique is one of the most prestigious properties on the right bank of the Bordeaux region. Audacity, precision and generosity are the key words to describe Château La Dominique and its magnificent wines.
The vineyard
Château La Dominique has always been involved in sustainable agriculture, reigning over a 29-hectare vineyard planted on an exceptional terroir, with a combination of brown clay soils and sandy soils on a clay sub-layer. The vines are 35 years old on average.
Grape varieties planted
Merlot (81%), cabernet franc (16%), cabernet sauvignon (3%).
The winemaking
Manual harvest in crates. Vinification in thermo-regulated frustoconical vats.
The ageing
16 months of ageing. 60% in new French oak barrels, 40% barrels of one previous wine.
The tasting
Tasted en primeur, the Château La Dominique 2019 is quite the charmer. This fine wine displays a bright and deep red colour. On the nose, aromas of ripe fruit emerge and mingle with notes of spices and truffles, supported by touches of undergrowth and pepper. The attack is straight-forward and is followed by a round and fleshy palate with precise tannins. The long and full finish combines the generosity of Saint-Emilion with the sap of Pomerol.
