Seductive yet restrained, this 2015 Domaine de Chevalier layers dark cassis and black cherry with hints of cedar, graphite and warm earth, all wrapped in a sleek, finely woven structure. The palate feels deep and polished, with ripe but firm tannins and a cool, stony freshness that stretches the flavours into a long, savoury, pepper-tinged finish. A superbly composed Pessac-Léognan that clearly reflects the generosity of the vintage while keeping its customary poise and finesse.

Domaine de Chevalier is the grand vin of this historic Pessac-Léognan estate, produced both as a Cabernet Sauvignon–led red and a Sauvignon Blanc–Sémillon dry white, each classified among the Crus Classés de Graves. The red is known for its refined structure, dark fruit, tobacco and graphite nuances, and remarkable capacity to age, while the white is celebrated as one of Bordeaux’s finest dry whites, combining intense fruit, smoky–minerally complexity, and vibrant freshness that reflects its forest-surrounded gravel terroir in Léognan.
