Domaine de Chevalier 2019

Red wine | Cru Classé de Graves Pessac-Léognan AC

More than a Château, an Estate!
Deep and aromatic red wine, with lots of personality, promising great evolution. But why ''Domaine'', rather than ''Château''? Unusual in Bordeaux, this term refers to a time when people lived on a large estate, between outbuildings, woods, and varied agricultural land. Today it still signals a global vision, which goes beyond the vineyard, but which is at its service!

    James Suckling
    The chocolate, walnut, dark-fruit and stone character is attractive. It's full-bodied and very tight and linear with chewy yet polished tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Lots of intensity and complexity here, as always.

    Purplish purple. Such finesse and complexity in this bouquet! Between the spices, floral notes and scents of black berries, there's plenty to do! The same on the palate with a delicious and juicy attack. The wine has body thanks to the breadth of its tannins, which are also fine, while the structure gives spirit to the entire palate. The result is a wine that combines charm, power and freshness. What a great success! 2025-2044.

    Jean-Marc Quarin
    Dark, intense, purple color, with black reflections. Very aromatic, fine, pure nose, with ripe and subtle fruitiness. Meticulous in its texture from the entry into the mouth, very fragrant in the middle, tasty, with body and a tender nuance, the wine finishes very pleasant, on a normal length and without angle. Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot. Alcohol content: 13°. Yield: 45 hl/ha. 2025 – 2042.
