DOMAINE DE CHEVALIER 2006

Wine 2006 Cru Classé  Bordeaux Pessac Leognan

Château note: Dark, intense, ruby on the disc, with a shiny black heart. Characteristic and complex flavours. Intensity, finesse and distinction. Fruity reminiscent of blackberry, cassis, black cherry and blueberry. Mineral flavors, smoky and fresh mint, express the gravelly soil mixed with clay. A fresh, sweet and fruity attack on the palate evolves on an important soft and high-end tannic structure. A smoky return on the palate, on liquorice, the resinous brings back fruity aromas to the nose. The tannins are very elegant. They bring the wine to a superb finish, delicate and balanced with good acidity.

Domaine de Chevalier's white has a reputation for long aging, and that's the case with 2006. It is the structure that does it, very firm, almost tannic. But the fruit is also a star, ripe, dense, with green plum flavors and touches of spice. Give this at least 10 years.

Delicate nose of ripe, red fruit, discreet oak. Mature, full, generous palate with attractive delicate texture. Superb as usual. Very fine Pessac.

Classic Pessac-Léognan. Beautiful with distinct mineral notes. Shows a freshness that indicates a much younger wine than this 2006. Extremely elegant and long.

Dark ruby, purple reflections, ochre brightening on the rim. Fine nuances of cassis and fine oak, light notes of liquorice and candied orange zest, a hint of prunes betrays the hot summer. Juicy, medium complexity, black cherries, some plum confit, fine fruit expression, subtle acidity, mineral-salty, remains well lasting, a versatile food wine but shows only medium length.

Tasted blind at Southwold ’06 Bordeaux tasting. Initially this Domaine de Chevalier seems a little muddled on the nose, the fruit rather taciturn. But it unfurls nicely with attractive aromas of crushed stone, pine, smoke and truffle developing with aeration. Understated entry, fleshy blackberry fruit interlaced with liquorice and bilberry that leads to a modern, oaky, succulent finish that demonstrates good depth and persistency.

With the help of consultant Stephane Derenoncourt, this wine was produced in a lush style for the vintage. Lots of ripe black fruit, cassis, smoke and chocolate in the nose. Full bodied with a long, soft, dark berry finish. This was produced from a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 2.5% Petit Verdot, and 2.5% Cabernet Franc.

There's attractive blackberry and light vanilla, with a hint of licorice. Full-bodied, with a caressing texture, very pretty fruit and notes of chocolate and licorice.

Exudes smooth tempered quality on the nose, with very good fruit and very classy oak. Lovely richness and ripeness here, with beautiful fruit quality and balance.

Dark color, slightly evolved. Nose of wet leather. Rather discreet. Caressing mouth, tasty, evolving suave after the medium on tannins still present. Normal length.

60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Harvested 19 September to 6 October. Garnet hue. Refined and subtle with stony-mineral character. Generous mid palate with layers of fruit covering an impressive tannic structure. Firm and fresh on the finish. Built for the long haul.
