L'Esprit de Chevalier represents the accessible entry point into one of Pessac-Léognan's most respected estates. Domaine de Chevalier has crafted exceptional wines since the 1800s, earning recognition as a Graves Classified Growth for both red and white wines.

This second wine captures the estate's signature elegance at a fraction of the flagship's price. The 2020 vintage showcases a Pessac-Léognan blend that may include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and potentially other Bordeaux varietals from the property's gravelly soils. The wine offers immediate appeal while maintaining the structure to develop over the next decade.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2020 L'Esprit de Chevalier has a tad too much wood influence on the nose, but there is sufficient fruit to absorb it. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, fleshy, lively and detailed, with a dash of white pepper toward the finish. This is another delicious, classically styled Pessac-Léognan. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

90 points

"Fleshy and demonstrative, the 2020 L'Esprit de Chevalier bursts with aromas of sweet berries, plums and petals. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with polished tannins and an expansive finish, it will drink well young." —William Kelley

Wine Spectator

88 points

"Plump and direct, with a mix of red currant and plum notes laced with a touch of red licorice, all backed by a light twang of iron on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot."
