Château La Dominique 2024

Ripe and concentrated, good forward push here, instantly quite captivating on the palate due to the texture, weight and vibrancy. Li fted and so joyous, definitely not as built or rich as previous vintages but this really works with silkiness, chalkiness and brightness. Good persistence and charm. Stylish. So easy to drink this. Restrained and precise but not too much. Ageing 50% new barrels, 35% one year barrel, 15% amphorae for 14 months. 3.56pH. Tasted three times. Drinking window: 2030-2042.
