Domaine de Chevalier is an illustrious Grand Cru Classé estate situated in Pessac-Léognan and is highly regarded for their superbly balanced and long-lived red and white wines. 2017 was a vintage affected by frost which meant that, whilst quality was still very high, yields were significantly reduced and a slightly higher than usual percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon was used in the final blend. The result is a beautifully dark-fruited, fragrant and elegant wine, with wonderfully fine tannins and bags of innate freshness.

The 2017 Domaine de Chevalier has a deep garnet-purple color. It rolls out of the glass with open-knit notes of fresh blackcurrants, blackberry preserves, and black raspberries, with hints of anise, forest floor, and menthol. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegant and refreshing, featuring lightly chewy tannins and an earthy finish.Lisa Perrotti-Brown29th December 2022

The 2017 Domaine de Chevalier remains a mystery. In multiple tastings I have found the 2017 to be soft and supple, but also lacking complexity and the pedigree that make the finest vintages so exciting. There is good energy at the outset, but then the wine narrows on the mid-palate and finish. Tasted three times. Antonio Galloni1st March 2020
