May 8, 2023 - Flowers, black cherries, black raspberries, wet earth, forest herbs, and a touch of crushed stone opens the aromatics. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, silky, fresh, and more importantly, the fruits express purity. The wine has lift, vivacity, spices and dark chocolate that accents the fruits. Not the most concentrated wine of the vintage, instead you find elegance, length and precision. The wine blends 88% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. 15% ABV, 3.7 pH. The wine is aged in 50% new, French oak, and 10% amphora. Drink from 2026-2045. 94-96 Pts.

May 1, 2023 - 94 vvPunkte / Ein Parfüm ist das, expressiv, mit Kirschen, Cassis und feinen Röstnoten, dazu Blüten und Orangenzesten, faszinierend. Im Gaumen fruchtbetont, frisch, die Tannine umgarnen die knackige Frucht, man möchte abbeissen, lebhaft, würzig und rotfruchtig im Finish ist das ein charmanter La Dominique mit ausgezeichneten Reserven. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 / UGCB / Château Valandraud) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

April 23, 2023 - En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Two (Bordeaux): Black plums, slight plain chocolate, sweet spice…juicy, plummy but with rather chewy and chunky tannins which take over the palate. Time, obviously, will help but it's a bit hmm…
