Ch.
La Dominique has a wonderful terroir that is situated between Ch. Cheval Blanc
and Ch. l’Evangile! The owner Clément Fayat (known from road building) has
considerably invested in the vineyard and the cellars (designed by the famous
architect Jean Nouvel). You can also visit the restaurant ‘La Terrasse Rouge’
with view on Ch. La Conseillante and Ch. Pétrus. Jean-Luc Thunevin (Ch.
Valandraud)
does the vinification to improve the quality. Since 2011, only 55% of the total
production goes into the first wine (before it was 80%). This is better for the
quality and the taste. Clément Fayat’s son Jean-Claude is now director. The
planting of cabernet franc has been raised from 15% to 30%. This terroir is
perfect for this vintage.
