Le Dôme is one of several Chateaux owned by acclaimed vigneron, Jonathan Maltus, and is a relative newcomer to the Bordeaux scene having first been released in 1996. Based in Saint-Émilion, the estate was created and developed from different parcels located close to Châteaux Beau-Sejour Becot, Canon and Angelus. From the superb 2015 vintage, this is a stunning release composed of 80% Cabernet Franc and 20% Merlot. It is rich, full-bodied and incredibly intense, but is simultaneously blessed with perfectly ripe tannins and wonderful freshness.

A powerful and impressive vintage in St Emilion, and Le Dôme is on brand - luscious, intense, high spice, charcoal, fennel, liquorice, a slab of bitter black chocolate alongside cassis and damson fruit. Perhaps less evident floral character from the Cabernet Franc than some vintages, but with plenty of juice running through the mid palate, tempering the high impact of the grilled oak, and there is a joyfulness to this that is impossible to ignore. Neil Whyte winemaker, Jonathan Maltus owner. 80% new oak for ageing, malolactic in new oak.Jane Anson15th January 2025

The 2015 Le Dôme has a fresh and generous bouquet with a mixture of red and black fruit, black truffle and light cedar aromas that blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied and vibrant, with edgy tannins. It's a little Médoc-like toward the finish, which is more backward and primal than expected. Give this another couple of years. Tasted blind at the 2015 Bordeaux Ten-Year-On tasting at Farr Vintners. Neal Martin3rd June 2025
