2023 Domaine de Chevalier, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvigon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot. 

Despite a challenging growing season, September brought a lot of warmth, allowing the red varieties to reach peak maturity, with the final plots of Cabernet Sauvignon being picked on the 30th. Yields are smaller this year at 30 hl/ha, but the wine produced is not to be missed. It is delicately perfumed with dark forest berries, clove and violet. The silky palate has plenty of concentration with layers of rich dark fruit. Powerful tannins frame the wine, leading to its persistent and saline finish. It is, without a doubt, a frontrunner this year. 

Drink 2029 - 2050

Our score: 17/20

About this wine

Pessac-Léognan

Pessac-Léognan

In 1986 a new communal district was created within Graves, based on the districts of Pessac and Léognan. Pessac-Léognan has the best soils of the region, very similar to those of the Médoc, although the depth of gravel is more variable, and contains all the classed growths of the region. Some of its great names, including Ch. Haut-Brion, even sit serenely and resolutely in Bordeaux's southern urban sprawl.
