Note di degustazione
Unlike a few bottles from 750 ml format where the noses were a bit funky, this was pure and elegant with its aromas of fresh lightly spiced plum, earth and black raspberry that are displaying only hints of secondary fruit. The dense, serious and detailed flavors possess fine concentration that helps to buffer the firm but not really austere supporting tannins on the wonderfully long and balanced finish. This is a classic La Dominode that could be enjoyed now but for my taste, I would hold it for at least another 5 years and 10 would not be too many in large format. In a word, excellent.

Good full red. Initially subdued, tight nose exploded with aeration to reveal raspberry, dark cherry, celery seed and blood orange. Densely packed, juicy and sappy, conveying a strong impression of energy to the lightly saline flavors of red fruits, spices, game, earth and leather. Finishes very long, with serious but sweet tannins and outstanding lift. Not a fleshpot but beautifully balanced for aging. A great vintage for this cuvee. (ST)
(30% new oak; the other premier crus get 20% to 25%): Red-ruby. Pure aromas of black cherry, licorice and violet. Sweet, dense and chewy, with excellent pepper and wild herb lift to the black cherry fruit. In a distinctly virile style but fine-grained, with the dusty tannins saturating the entire mouth. This won't offer the early appeal of the seductively sweet 2009 version but it should round into shape with seven or eight years of cellaring.
