Domaine de Chevalier
The Domaine de Chevalier located in Léognan the Capital town of the Graves Region has a long history. It appears on the famous map of Pierre de Belleyme in 1783. In 1983 the estate was purchased by the Bernard Family N° 1 in France on the spirits market and a major negociant of premium Bordeaux wines. It has been run ever since by Olivier Bernard who perpetuates that spirit of balance and the constant drive for perfection which have been the hallmark of this outstanding wine. The white Domaine de Chevalier is recognized as one of the world’s finest dry wines.
Description
Pale gold color with bright hues. Intensely fruity and finely flowery nose with lots of freshness. Pêche de vigne, mango, apricot, star anise, in a bouquet of hawthorn and acacia flowers and honeysuckle. Dense, generous, greedy, lively palate, with a silky touch. Refined flesh, ripe and very delicate. Long, elegant finish with great finesse. The acidity is present, without weakness, and balances well the high level of concentration of this wine.
Food Pairing
Enjoy with snap pea ravioli with crayfish or prawns.
