Depth and drive define Domaine de Chevalier 2021, a Cabernet-Sauvignon-led Graves that channels pure blackcurrant and blackberry fruit wrapped in cool graphite, dark cocoa and a twist of licorice. The palate is medium-bodied but intense, with velvety, finely etched tannins, bright acidity and a long, sapid finish that feels more about energy and precision than sheer weight. A classic, quietly confident vintage that puts terroir expression ahead of opulence.

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.
