Château Dompierre Pauillac 2020 by Michel Aroldi

Description

Aromas and Flavour

Château Dompierre Pauillac 2020 stands out for its aromatic complexity and richness on the palate. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of ripe black fruit, such as blackcurrant and blueberry, accompanied by spicy notes of black pepper and cinnamon. On the palate, it impresses with its well-balanced tannic structure and silky texture. Flavours of black cherry, plum and liquorice blend harmoniously, offering a long, lingering finish.

Grape variety

This wine is a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure and power, while the Merlot gives roundness and fruitiness. Petit Verdot adds a touch of complexity and depth. Each grape variety is vinified separately before being blended, allowing us to make the most of each variety.
