Dalem is a beautiful 20-hectare vineyard (90% Merlot) in Fronsac, where the owner, Mrs Rullier, devotes herself wholeheartedly to the estate. Her energy is evident in her wines, which are full-bodied and assertive yet endowed with genuine elegance, in both great and lesser vintages.
Vinous (N. Martin) : 92-94/100 "The Dalem 2025 offers a fragrant, floral bouquet, where notes of violet enhance the exuberant aromas of black cherry and raspberry. A fine display of precision. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with supple tannins, lively acidity, a velvety texture, and remarkable weight and finesse on the finish. This Dalem promises to be a very accomplished and delicious wine."
J-M Quarin : 93/100 « A deep, intense, purplish red colour. A very aromatic, refined, fruity and pure nose. Hints of truffle. Meticulously crafted on the palate, with a classy texture and a taste of blackberries, the wine melts on the palate. It unfolds gently and juicily, leading to a long finish with deep aromas and plenty of flavour. The grace of Merlot on clay-limestone terroirs. »
Vinous (A. Galloni) : 90-92/100 « The 2025 Dalem offers a striking mix of fruit intensity and eneray. Crushed red berry fruit, chalk, mint, white pepper, slate and blood orange give Dalem tons of energy fomatch its mid-weight personality. There's terrific eneray and drive here »
