Product Description
Olivier Bernard skillfully combines Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, both grown organically to create the Domaine de Chevalier Blanc. The grapes are harvested by hand every year using biodynamic farming techniques.
Tasting Notes
Vinous 95
The 2020 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc marries power and tension so well. Lemon confit marzipan, chamomile, dried orchard fruit and crushed flowers all build effortlessly into the expansive, beautifully resonant finish. Above all else, the Blanc is a wine of savory/mineral complexity and structure. I wouldn’t dream of touching a bottle anytime soon. Tasted two times.
Anticipated maturity: 2026-2050
Robert Parker 95
The 2020 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc bursts with notions of ripe yellow apples, juicy pears and lime blossoms, plus hints of blanched almonds, yuzu zest and wet pebbles. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers impactful apple and citrus flavors with a racy backbone and seductive oiliness to the texture, finishing long and minerally.
Anticipated maturity: 2025-2038
