cherry and kirsch that remains on your palate and expands in flavor

The refined yet tautly muscled flavors possess good detail and plenty of punch before culminating in a dusty and mouth coating finish of grand cru depth and persistence

Dome Vintage:2004 This expression shows great powerTasted at the chteau, the 2006 Le Dme has retained an attractive bouquet with crushed violet and cold limestone scents percolating through the blackberry and boysenberry fruit. The palate is fresh on the entry with slightly coarse tannin, mulberry, red plum and Seville orange marmalade here, moderate depth with just a slightly abrupt, muscular finish. It has aged better than Les Asteries and I would be inclined to drink this over the next 5 7 years.
