Note di degustazione
The 2025 La Dominique is a significant step up from the Deuxième Vin this year: vivid red and black fruit, a touch of cedar and a more floral style, with violet and iris flowers. Fine delineation. The palate is well balanced, with rounded, velvety tannins, good depth and a judicious touch of white pepper sprinkled over the finish. This should drink well for 15 to 20 years.

Deep purple-hued, the 2025 Château La Dominique is a reserved yet clearly promising Saint-Emilion based on 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, raised in 50% new barrels, 35% once-used barrels, and 15% amphora. Ripe black fruits, smoky tobacco, gravelly earth, and graphite all define the nose, and on the palate, it's rich and medium to full-bodied, with ample mid-palate volume, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It checks in at 13.6% alcohol with a pH of 3.68 and is very much on the focused, dense, concentrated side of the vintage.
Focused and curated, with very long, fine tannins that take the wine on a journey. Nicely ripe fruit with berry and light hazelnut undertones. This is going to an excellent wine in the bottle.
The 2025 La Dominique is terrific. This is one of the best vintages of La Dominique I can remember tasting. Aromatic, silky and exceptionally polished, La Dominique impresses right out of the gate. Bracing saline notes extend the clean, reverberating finish. A sleeper.
