2016 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc Cru Classé, Pessac-Leognan

Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is a rarity, not only for its exceptional quality, but also because the white wine fields have been cut down to 4 hectares to maintain the high level of quality. Production is therefore extremely limited with huge demand. It is probably the only white wine in Bordeaux that ages a year and a half in oak barrels, developing positively in the cellar over +10 years. You will be rewarded to the fullest; the bouquet offers a cascade of floral elements, with nuances of honey and vanilla. Over time, it evolves with richer nuances of exotic fruits and a nutty aroma that can sometimes bring to mind a dry Sauternes. It has a very bold, full-bodied structure, with an engaging fresh elegance, and a very aromatic and concentrated flavor with lots of finesse and length on the palate. Translated using AI.
