Note di degustazione
Pure magic, the 2009 Domaine De Chevalier Blanc shows how special as well as how ageworthy these whites from the Graves region of Bordeaux can be. Revealing a medium gold color as well as a stunning array of caramelized lime, crushed stone, quince, honeysuckle, flowers, and beeswax, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, opulent texture, bright acidity, and a gorgeous finish. Flirting with perfection, it will stand up to anything out there. I'd say it's drinking at point today, yet this bottle improved with air and was still brilliant on day two, so it certainly has a long life ahead of it. Hats off to the Chevalier team for this incredible wine!

This wine has closed down since I saw it prior to bottling. A blend of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon from one of the great estates in Pessac-Leognan, the wine has notes of white currants, melon, and flint/crushed rock with a delicate hit of orange and lemon zest. Give it another 4-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the following three decades.
This is fabulous, long and superintense, with dried pineapple and sliced apples. Dense and powerful, with a great backbone of acidity and a long, long finish. Wonderful structure in this baby white
