This 2017 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is made from a blend of 75% Sauvignon and 25% Semillon grapes. 2017 was a harsh year due to frost, however today it is part of the excellence for a Bordeaux white and is being called a great vintage by the big names in the wine world.
Tasting notes:
The robe: is adorned with a yellow color with light green reflections.
The nose: reveals aromas of ripe pears, apples and white peaches with chalky notes
Palate: full-bodied, the palate is very intense and racy, with many mineral sparks on the finish
12bouteilles advice : To be decanted 1 to 2 hours before tasting and to be served chilled (12-14°C), it will wonderfully accompany a baked fish.
R.Parker Wine Advocate : "Closed on the nose to begin, the Domaine de Chevalier 2017 Blanc (composed of 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon) opens to aromas of ripe pears, golden delicious apples and white peaches with notions of straw, honeysuckle and chalk. Medium-bodied, the palate is seriously intense and racy with loads of mineral sparks on the finish. It was aged for 16 months in French oak, 35% new."
