Country: France / Barrel sample
Variety: Bordeaux-style White Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Domaine de Chevalier / Pessac-Léognan
93—95 Barrel sample. Domaine de Chevalier’s white has a reputation for long aging, and that’s the case with 2006. It is the structure that does it, very firm, almost tannic. But the fruit is also a star, ripe, dense, with green plum flavors and touches of spice. Give this at least 10 years.
