Deep, dark fruit pours from the glass in the 2017 Domaine de Chevalier, with blackcurrant, plum and blueberry layered over subtle cocoa, cedar and earthy tobacco tones. The palate is sleek yet concentrated, framed by fine, persistent tannins that give structure to the generous, juicy core of fruit and a long, focused finish. It feels both serious and inviting—classic Pessac-Léognan with a refined, modern polish.

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.
