Château Dompierre, Pauillac 2020 (750ml) *

Pauillac sits in the Médoc, where Cabernet Sauvignon leads the classic Bordeaux blend and gives the wines their firm structure and dark-fruited depth. This is the 2020 from Château Dompierre, a red built in that left-bank mold, where Cabernet's tannic backbone is rounded out by the plumper contributions of Merlot.
