From vineyards right next to Ch. Calon-Ségur, Ch. Domeyne is a new
venture run by Claire Villars-Lurton (of Ch. Haut-Bages-Libéral). Only 5
hectares of vines are used for this wine which is unusual for St Estèphe
in that the blend is Merlot-dominant (60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon). The
cooler climate in St Estèphe favoured Merlot in 2009 and this is a very
unique wine. We were certainly impressed with its floral, cherry blossom nose
reminiscent of Margaux, ripe concentrated cassis fruit and fine, grainy
tannins.

Full-bodied, with plenty of ripe fruit, toasted oak and spices. Long and
caressing. Ch. Domeyne, St Estèphe is a relatively new estate to
watch.
