2022 Cabernet Malbec is a textbook Dominique Portet style of red - bright, fresh and fragrant with elegance and texture that will reward mid-term cellaring.
2019 will go down as one of the great vintages for accessible, bright and fragrant Cabernet. Everything came into balance - The fruit is dark, brooding and mouth coating; the tannins are svelte and long; the acidity is clean and refreshing. It all intertwines seamlessly, to give us a wine we consider to be bright, detailed, elegant and fine.
The pinnacle of the Dominique Portet wines, André is made only in exceptional vintages - 2015 is only the 6th release. It is named after Dominique Portet’s father and Ben’s grandfather, 8th generation winemaker and former Technical Director (vineyard and winery manager) at the esteemed Château Lafite-Rothschild in Pauillac, Bordeaux.
