Note di degustazione
55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Harvested 27 September to 16 October. Bright garnet hue. Subtle red- and dark-fruit notes. Clearly, better maturity than any of the others in this flight so far. Mid-palate sweetness. Tannins present but refined. Drinking well but should hold. (JL)

Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Domaine de Chevalier was tasted from two bottles. I returned the first as it felt a little volatile on the nose, but the second was as it should be. This has a very refined bouquet with scents of warm gravel and black olives permeating the dark berry fruit, all very well defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, very fresh and generous in the mouth with superb mineralité and tension towards the tertiary finish. What a lovely Domaine de Chevalier—à point—but with the substance to suggest that it will not go downhill in any hurry. Tasted February 2017.
Dark core and narrow ruby-brick rim. Chocolate-oak sweetness and spice on the nose and just a light note of maturity. Chewy but rounded texture. (JH)
