Domaine de Chevalier 2016
Bordeaux - Pessac-Leognan - Cru Classé - Red Wine -This Domaine de Chevalier 2016 vintage has a dark, intense, purple color. Its nose is an aromatic bouquet, subtle and complex, of blackberry, cedar, accompanied by smoky notes and a slight minerality. On the palate, this scoop is moderately full-bodied with very fine tannins, a magnificent structure.
Of a beautiful complexity, this red wine of Domaine de Chevalier has a lot of elegance, charm and finesse, already a great vintage!
The Domaine de Chevalier, flagship product of the Pessac Léognan appellation, belongs to the elite Grands Crus Classés of Bordeaux. Located in Léognan, capital of the Graves, the Domaine de Chevalier is of very ancient origin. Made from a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot grapes, this 2016 vintage is already a great wine, praised by wine experts.
The advice of 12bouteilles: This great wine is to decant and decant 1 to 2 hours before tasting.
"This is an exceptional Domaine de Chevalier of the busiest man in Bordeaux, Oliver Bernard, evaluated twice with consistent notes." - Robert Parker

Situé à Léognan, capitale des Graves, le Domaine de Chevalier est d'origine très ancienne. Il est représenté en 1763 sous le nom de "Chibaley " (chevalier, en gascon), sur la carte de l'ingénieur géographe Pierre de Belleyme. En 1983, la propriété est acquise par la famille Bernard, leader francais sur le marché des eaux de vie et important négociant en grands vins de Bordeaux. Elle est gérée depuis lors par Olivier Bernard. Dans le droit fil de l'histoire de Chevalier il perpétue l'esprit d'équilibre et de recherche de la perfection qui, depuis plus de 130 ans, signe la production de ce cru d'excellence. Le Domaine de Chevalier rouge, produit phare de l'appellation Pessac Léognan, appartient à l'élite des Grands Crus Classés de Bordeaux. Le Domaine de Chevalier blanc, remarquable vin de garde, est reconnu comme l'un des plus grands vins blancs secs du Monde.
