About this wine
La Dominique is a Merlot-dominated Saint-Émilion, with Cabernet Franc and a little Cabernet Sauvignon, from vineyards near Cheval Blanc and the Pomerol boundary. It is rich and supple, with ripe plum and dark berry fruit, a velvety texture and fine tannins. It drinks well after eight years and good vintages age for twenty years.
About La Dominique
Château La Dominique is a Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Émilion in the north-west of the appellation, close to the border with Pomerol and next to Château Cheval Blanc. It has been owned since 1969 by the family of Clément Fayat, the founder of a large construction group.
The vineyard lies on gravel, sand and clay and is planted mainly with Merlot, with Cabernet Franc and some Cabernet Sauvignon. A striking red winery designed by Jean Nouvel was opened in 2014. La Dominique makes rich, generous Saint-Émilion from a highly regarded corner of the appellation.
