Antonio Galloni

"The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier has a typical nose from this Pessac-Léognan estate. It's understated but beguiling, with cedar, undergrowth-tinged red fruit and just a subtle background dab of peppermint. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. This is fleshy for a Domaine de Chevalier and perhaps has less grip. A judicious dash of black pepper enlivens the finish and there is a bit more persistence than I recall. The 2015 is delicious from the start. Tasted at the 2015 Ten-Year-On tasting at Bordeaux Index." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

"The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier is composed of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. It went through malolactic and aging on its lees during three months in 35% new, 35% one-year-old and 30% two-year-old barrels, with a total aging of 18 months. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it has lovely spiciness on the nose—Chinese five spice and black pepper—with a core of red and black cherries and smoked meats. Medium-bodied, finely crafted and refreshing, it's quite minerally in the mouth and persistent on the finish." —Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Decanter

"A little angular and closed right now, until it unrolls and builds in the glass, the complexity of flavours comes through after five minutes peeling off one by one, but it is without doubt needs time. You have to sit with this until the texture and the frisson across the palate comes alive. A brilliant wine, give it at least a decade to really find its full expression, knowing the track record of Domaine de Chevalier in these muscular vintages. 2% of Cabernet Franc makes up the blend given here."

Wine Spectator

92 points

"This has a solid core of gently steeped plum and blackberry fruit inlaid liberally with warm ganache and roasted vanilla notes. Warm, dark earth details pervade the finish, along with hints of tobacco and espresso, though this remains suave and perfumy overall."

Wine Enthusiast

95 points

"This wine is ripe, rich and generous. It brings out the almost-sweet character of the fruit in this vintage. At the same time, the tannins are firm and support all this fruitiness. The wine will develop well."

More about Domaine de Chevalier

A Grand Cru Classé of Graves that the Bernard family has managed since 1983. Located south of Bordeaux in Léognan, this estate makes both serious reds and compelling whites—rare in Bordeaux, rarer still done well. The family's spirits business doesn't matter; these wines are what they're remembered for.
