CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2014 Domaine de Chevalier has always been an impressive wine for the vintage. This has a superb bouquet with blackberry, graphite, sea spray and pressed roses, which are very well-defined and classy. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant, fine tannins, a keen line of acidity, fresh with white pepper and allspice towards the harmonious and precise finish. This is a Pessac-Leognan ratcheting through the gears - recommended. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

The 2014 Domaine de Chevalier has a wonderful bouquet with pure blackberry, raspberry coulis and iodine-tinged aromas that seem to envelop the senses. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, superb acidity and a sense of symmetry that is uncommon in the 2014 vintage. This is a sophisticated, precise wine from Olivier Bernard that could be one of top wines of the vintage. There is an approachability to this Domaine de Chevalier, which you do not always find, however I would be inclined to give this 3-4 years in bottle.

65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot. 16-18 months in oak, a third new. Tasted blind. Notably dark crimson. Glows. Sweet and palate-coating. But then dry and a bit dour on the end. Hint of red pimento powder. Tannins pretty marked. Bordeaux?
