Domaine de Chevalier is situated in the Pessac-Léognan appellation in southern Bordeaux, rooted in gravel-rich soils with sandy and clay-loam components that—combined with the surrounding forest enclave—create a balanced microclimate and endow the wines with a precise, often cooler-toned profile.

Domaine de Chevalier 2023 reveals pure, dark-fruited aromatics of forest berries, licorice, and refined smoky and spicy notes. Its structure is taut and precisely built, supported by well-integrated, fine-grained tannins. Vibrant acidity provides freshness, while a subtle mineral imprint reflects the gravelly soils of Pessac-Léognan.

In Pessac-Léognan, the 2023 vintage was warm overall yet tempered by the sheltered woodland setting and ample water reserves in the subsoil, resulting in even ripening and yielding wines of pure fruit, stable structure, and bright freshness.

The blend comprises 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. Domaine de Chevalier 2023 is aged in barriques with a clearly calibrated proportion of new oak and an extended maturation period designed for structure, clarity, and seamless balance between fruit and wood.

The wine possesses fine aging potential and already displays a clear structure and poise that will continue to evolve harmoniously over time.
