This is really powerful and structured with superb muscle and phenolic tension. Yet, it’s formed and polished, layered and dense. Full-bodied, but energetic and focused. Vibrant acidity. Goes on for minutes. Citrus, stone, straw, salt and chalk. Incredible. Try after 2023.
Producer
Domaine de Chevalier
A top producer of both reds and whites, the unique Domaine de Chevalier is one of the leading Grand Cru Classés to craft both varieties in the Pessac-Léognan. The property has been owned by the Bernard family since 1983, although their vineyards date as far back as the 1770s. Today the family continues in their quest for quality and balance with the help of the Bernards’ right hand, Rémi Edange. Edange manages the domaine hands-on, he is equally committed to producing the appellation’s best wines. Today, Oliver Bernard, beside Edange and recently appointed head vigneron, Stéphane Derenoncourt make up quite a fine team, producing some of the most sought after Left Bank whites. Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is a small production blend, dominated by Sauvignon Blanc with the remaining one fourth Sémillon, the wine is barrel-fermented and aged resulting in a structured and elegant wine. The newest vintages of Domaine de Chevalier Rouge similarly attract attention, and have continued to grow in quality, it is a sophisticated and generous red that delivers a lot for its price.
