2010 Chateau La Dominique Saint Emilion Grand Cru Classe

Vinous Media (VM)

The 2010 La Dominique has a far superior bouquet to the 2009, far more generous with ample black cherry, boysenberry and mineral scents, much better than previous bottles that I have encountered. The palate is medium-bodied with espresso-tinged black fruit, fine tannins, a keen thread of acidity and plenty of freshness and focus on the finish. This is leagues above the 2009 La Dominique and comes recommended. Tasted at the vertical tasting at La Dominique.
