Le Dome 2012 is a mature Right Bank Bordeaux from the St-Emilion region. Produced under the stewardship of Jonathan Malthus, this wine showcases a dense ruby hue alongside aromas of blackcurrant and plum, punctuated by subtle floral undertones. The palate offers a medium body with a balance of fruit purity and mineral depth. Its complexity and finesse contribute to a wine deserving of attention, suitable for consumption over the next decade.

Reserved on the nose, takes time to open up, then shows sandalwood, incense, black pepper, grilled damson, salted caramel, all wrapped up in sinewy tannins. Still young, plenty of poise to this wine, coupled with enjoyably spicy gourmet notes, and once again the dominance of Cabernet Franc kicks the aromatics up a gear, and tightens the grip through the palate. Cocoa dusting and red cherry puree makes things a little overly sweet on the finish. Neil Whyte winemaker, Jonathan Maltus owner. 80% new oak for ageing, malolactic in new oak.Jane Anson15th January 2025

The 2012 Le Dôme has a fresh and vibrant nose, black truffle infusing the brambly red fruit, hints of black pepper and decayed leaves filtering through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a touch of piquancy on the entry and fine acidity; it's focused with a pleasant, ferrous finish that lingers in the mouth. This is fully mature but should give another decade of drinking pleasure. Tasted blind at the Southwold Ten-Year On tasting. Neal Martin27th September 2022
89 The Wine Independent
The 2012 Le Dome is medium to deep garnet colored. It wafts out with evolved scents of fried herbs, stewed black tea, and figs, plus suggestions of menthol, plum preserves, and cedar. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing and chewy, with remaining hints of dried berries coming through on the finish. Drink up! Lisa Perrotti-Brown16th February 2023
