(Allen Meadows' Burghound Score 90-93 Outstanding Top Value) Here too the aromatic profile is quite cool and pure though in this case it's both riper and more deeply pitched with its blend of red and dark currant, earth and violet scents. The old vines are very much in evidence as there is excellent concentration and an abundance of sap supporting the medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a serious, very firm and built-to-age finish. This slightly rustic effort is fashioned in a no-nonsense style and it's not likely to be a candidate for early drinking.

The old vines produce a rich and powerful wine that is not common in the Cote de Beaune. La Dominode belongs to the 1er cru les Haut-Jarrons. It is at the heart of this lieu (place). The yields are naturally low but regular because the vines were planted in 1902. The exposure to the east is ideal and the ground is a mixture of stones and clay. I have been vinifying la Dominode since 1979 and it has undoubtedly the most consistent vines of the domaine - always low yields and beautiful maturity of the grapes. The quality and the age of the vines contribute to this consistency. There are, naturally, annual variations according to the vintage and the weather, but the variations are fewer than in other vineyards. The color is always deep, tannins are full and rich. It is a wine that demands a few years of ageing, often more than 10 years, before it is ready to be tasted. A wine to be cellared.
