Domaine de Chevalier

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 95

Drink To: 2028-2055

Domaine de Chevalier is renowned for its ability to produce great wines even in unfashionable vintages thanks to its unique terroir and a draconian selection in the vineyard and the cellar. Esprit de Chevalier is a charming red wine with many of the same qualities as the grand vin and the added advantage that can be enjoyed earlier.

Neal Martin

The 2020 Domaine de Chevalier has a refined and understated nose, well-defined with blackberry, briar, gravel and earth. Sensual in style, it gradually unfurls in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins and a little creaminess toward the back end, but there is still decent structure here. Give this four to five years in bottle-the class shines through. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.

Tasted from a half-bottle. 70% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Semillon. This is a bit fruitier than the 2016, but not excessively so. Starfruit, kiwi and passionfruit along with fennel and pencil shavings. The acidity is elevated but less intense than that of the 2016. (JRL)
