Domaine de Chevalier Blanc 1998 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc 1998 Pessac-Leognan (Graves), Grand Cru Classe 3 slightly scuffed labels Incredible spice on the nose. So much excitement. Such luscious, opulent black fruit with cinnamon and spice. Vanilla pod finish. One of the greatest wines ever produced in my humble opinion. SS. Lot 225 12 bts (cn) per lot: USD 950-1200 Olivier Bernard is a magician with his white wines which have always been fascinating at Domaine de Chevalier. They last amazingly in bottle, as shown by Olivier when he has mounted vertical tastings going back decades - the wines remain simply unbelievably fresh. However, it is difficult to resist them young, in all their predominantly Sauvignon splendour - locals tend to match the youthful wine with oysters. But the approximately 30% Semillon and the fermentation and aging in oak casks give it the gravitas to go the distance, with its compact, intense bouquet and flavour. The tiny production makes this even more of a treasure. SS. Quantity: 1
