About the Wine
Domaine de Chevalier is where luxury meets precision in Bordeaux. This Grand Cru Classé de Graves estate isn't just a winery—it’s an institution in the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation. Known for producing wines that age like legends, Domaine de Chevalier crafts both red and white Grand Vin that are some of the longest-lived in all of Bordeaux.
What sets this estate apart is their unrelenting commitment to quality. Grapes are hand-sorted in the vineyards, sometimes one at a time! To guard against frost, they don’t just cross their fingers—they bring out wind machines and helicopters. Yes, helicopters. They mix cold air with warm to shield their vines from the chill, ensuring that even in tricky vintages, their wines shine with the same excellence as the best years.
A true family legacy, Domaine de Chevalier is still managed by the Bernard family, led by Olivier Bernard, who took the reins at just 23. Sustainability runs deep here, with vines that average 50 years old, and a deep-rooted respect for the land they cultivate.
This estate is where craftsmanship, passion, and vision come together. When you taste their wines, you’re not just sipping—you’re experiencing history in the making. The 2021 Pessac-Léognan de Chevalier? Just another killer wine from one of Bordeaux’s most iconic estates. A stunning value red that punches well above its weight. And as direct importers, we cut out the middleman, bringing you these world-class wines at unbeatable prices, straight from the source.
Tasting Notes
70% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine hits hard with intense cassis and dark chocolate wrapped in cedar smoke. Powerful tannins frame waves of concentrated blackberry and espresso richness that just don't quit. Razor-sharp acidity cuts through the fruit intensity, revealing tobacco, violets, and that signature minerality that screams premium Graves.
