The Domaine de Chevalier located in Léognan, the Capital town of the Graves Region has a long history. It appears on the famous map of Pierre de Belleyme in 1783. In 1983 the estate was purchased by the Bernard Family, N° 1 in France on the spirits market and a major negociant of premium Bordeaux wines. It has been run ever since by Olivier Bernard who, together with his team, gradually introduced a winemaking philosophy revolving around balance. This guides every step of viticulture and winemaking, as does respecting the purity of the fruit and gentle extraction in keeping with the terroir and vintage character...He perpetuates the constant drive for perfection which have been the hallmark of this outstanding wine. The 7-hectare vineyard is in conversion to Organic Farming. The 2021 vintage, a vintage divided in two periods for a great success This 2021 vintage at Domaine de Chevalier will go down in history for two climatically opposed reasons: on the one hand,  a chaotic climatic and viticultural season, severe frosts and heavy rains favoring mildew; on the other hand, an extraordinary end to the season, for the maturity and the harvest, under the great anticyclone, allowing two great successes, in White as in Red. Olivier Bernard tells you about this vintage: https://bit.ly/DomainedeChevalier2021 Tasting notes Bright color, pale gold with almond green glints. On the nose, great freshness, very pure, lively, refined and complex. The fruity aromas offer citrus zest as well as fresh white-fleshed fruits, ripe but not excessively. The vineyard peach is fully expressed. On the white flower side, we find hawthorn, linden and acacia flower. This bouquet, racy and seductive, reveals mineral and saline fragrances, quartz, gunflint, signature of our gravelly soils. The palate is juicy, dense, suave, silky and very delicate. The superb acid tension perfectly structures this wine and gives it great freshness. The purity of the flavors brings out a finish of great elegance. Impeccable balance, classic style.
