Note di degustazione
The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is one of my favorite vintages in recent years. On the nose, Golden Delicious intermixes with lime and Granny Smiths, which has real drive. The palate is very well balanced with great poise and tension, but it's the texture that really delivers, with hints of chamomile lingering toward the finish. This is excellent. Tasted at the 2015 Ten-Year-On tasting at Bordeaux Index.

The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc has a strict, terse, mineral-driven bouquet, full of energy and very focused. The oak is well assimilated here. The balanced palate offers Golden Delicious apple, white pepper and light pear notes on the entry. Displaying good depth, and perhaps one of the spicier dry white Bordeaux, this feels very long and assured toward the finish. Superb. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
The 2015 Chevalier Blanc is as brilliant now as it was on release yet still needs 4-5 years of bottle age to show at its best. Crushed lime, lemon zest, crushed rocks, and beautiful white grapefruit notes all emerge from this racy, beautifully concentrated, focused white that checks in with the crème de la crème of the vintage.
