2015 vintage. The white Domaine de Chevalier is one of the greatest Bordeaux whites, and this 2015 is no exception. The secret lies in the terroir and the extreme selection of grapes, returning 4 to 5 times to the same vine in order to harvest only perfect grapes. A blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Purity, complexity, perfect balanced and terrific length. Not cheap at around 120 euros, but well worth seeking out if you can afford it. Moreover these wines age beautifully for decades.

Complex, multi-layered nose. Grapey, berries, cedar, leather, on the nose. Well balanced, long finish. Last half bottle from Lower Falls. Really well made.
