Note di degustazione
The 1990 La Dominique is the vintage that introduced me to the property early on in my career. It has a perfumed and floral bouquet with more black fruit than red, clove, truffle and a touch of peppermint. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded tannin, perhaps rustic in style compared to the modern-day wines, but there is impressive depth with a truffle, cedar and tobacco finish that actually reminds me of a Vieux-Château-Certan. It is a bit obvious but still thoroughly enjoyable. Tasted at the vertical tasting at La Dominique.

A soft, low acid, fruity 1990, this fully mature wine exhibits notes of cedar, spice box, fruitcake, licorice, black currants, and cherries. Full-bodied, opulent, and exotic, it is best drunk now and over the next 4-5 years. This is a very sexy, fruity, attractive wine. Release price: ($275.00/case)

This 29-hectare estate’s site speaks for itself, neighbouring Cheval Blanc, Figeac, Evangile and La Conseillante at the northwestern edge of Saint-Emilion, where the appellation meets Pomerol.
