An elegant and expressive Saint-Emilion wine

The estate

Located on the edge of Pomerol and on the western part of the Saint-Emilion appellation, Chateau La Dominique is one of the most prestigious estates on the right bank of the Bordeaux region. Audacity, precision and generosity are the key words to describe Chateau La Dominique and its exquisite wines.

The vineyard
