Le Dôme is Jonathan Maltus's iconic Cabernet Franc-driven Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, a micro-cuvee from limestone slopes built on meticulous parcel selection and old-vine fruit. The 2008 shows Right Bank finesse, with ripe blackcurrant, red cherry, violet, and graphite over tobacco and cedar. Medium-to-full bodied and precise, cassis, dark plum, and cocoa glide on fine, chalky tannins lifted by lively limestone-borne acidity, closing long and savory with mineral, cedar spice, and dried herb. A collector's expression of the perfume of Cabernet Franc.
