    The 2012 La Dominique is a hedonistic, medium to full-bodied effort with lots of black olive, black raspberry, licorice and kirsch characteristics. It is a well-endowed, fleshy, succulently textured wine exhibiting outstanding ripeness, no dilution and sweet tannin.
    Barrel Sample: 90-93 Points

    Vivacious blueberry, lingonberry and blackberry fruit bounces along here, with a briary underpinning and buried spice notes on the juicy finish.
    Barrel Sample: 89-92 Points

    One never knows what one will get with Château La Dominque. Over the past two decades, I have found this wine evolving into a finer and more consistent wine. The 2012 is wildly bright. Showing aromas and flavors of ripe, red fruits, savory spices, and earth notes, it looks like it would be a good match with lightly spiced lamb stew. (Tasted: January 30, 2015, San Francisco, CA)

    A very juicy wine made from grapes that were probably too ripe, this wine does have structure, but it shows only slowly through the soft, very juicy fruit flavors.
    Barrel Sample: 89-91 Points

    A wine with a full body, and a very good depth of ripe, velvety tannins. Plenty of fruit. Balanced and juicy.
    Barrel Sample: 89-90 Points

Chateau La Dominique, France
Chateau La Dominique Winery Image
Driven by enthusiasm and the spirit of enterprise, in 1969 Clément Fayat acquired Chateau La Dominique, an estate offering a high class terroir, located on the western side of the Saint-Emilion appellation.

Respect for the soil in order to bring out its potential at its best, disciplined and careful work in the vines throughout their life-cycle, greatest care for the grapes from their ripening until the crucial period of fermentation, and finally the closest attention that is paid during the ageing process and the bottling. The winery has 23 hectares and the soils are 25% deep gravel, 75% old sand mixes with gravel over a clay sub-layer. The vines average 30 years of age.
