Tom Cannavan January - 1997
Tom Cannavan
Very deep, crimson colour. Subdued nose with slightly rough, oaky notes (others said this softened considerably over the evening - I didn't re-taste). Quite luscious on the palate, glycerine as well as decent fruit and subtle tobacco notes. Not giving a huge amount at this stage, though a fine, long finish. Very pure but subdued and lacking enough concentration to really grip. Very fine though - one that might improve?

Yet another outstanding effort from this property. Extremely fine with wonderful cedar, cherry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied with a super tannin structure.

Bordeaux red colour. Dark with slight evolution. Bright, of good intensity. Nose of medium intensity. Notes of caramel, tinned fruit, hint of undergrowth and bay leaf. Complex. With aeration more open and more fruit-forward. Complex and ripe. Soft and tender attack developing on a structure of straight form, elegant, juicy and caressing, of medium intensity which evolves on very flavourful, fruity, liquorice-like and fine tannins which persist for a very long time, very aromatic. A wine of finish with moderate tannic support but full of aromas. Marvellous finale. Can be tasted now and will keep for a long time.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Served from ex-chateau magnum at Taillevent. This '85 Domaine de Chevalier is a respectable offering for the vintage. It has a ripe, fleshy, soft, almost Burgundian nose that I personally find more attractive than the '83. Good purite and sense of terroir here. The palate is full-bodied with ripe, supple tannins and more glycerin than noticeable in other vintages. Silky smooth in texture but very good weight with a hint of black truffle on the harmonious finish that would benefit from a little more length. But overall: very attractive, if not profound.
