Tasted four times previously, the 2000 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is a vintage that I have always admired. Now slightly deeper in color, it has a lovely bouquet of yellow plum, popcorn, dandelion and hints of lavender. The waxy-textured palate is slightly lower in acidity than the 2001, and very harmonious, with impressive depth. There is something almost Rhône-like toward the white peach and lychee finish, where a fine underlying bitterness comes though (with just a bit of volatility to this bottle). Excellent.

One of the best dry whites of the vintage, the 2000 offers up notes of lanolin, citrus, grapefruit, smoke, and minerals with notions of toasty wood in the background. This medium to full-bodied, deep, concentrated, pure, intense effort is a success for the vintage. It should hit its peak in 5-6 years and last for two decades.Robert Parker23rd April 2003
