Domaine de Chevalier Rouge Cru Classé de Graves Magnum 2020

Since this somewhat remote vineyard introduced state-of-the-art cellar technology around ten years ago and began working in a very sustainable and organic way, the Chevalier has made another huge leap into the top league of Pessac wines under the guidance of star oenologist Stéphane Derenoncourt. The reds in particular have benefited greatly from this. The wines have become cleaner, more powerful and longer-lasting. Domaine de Chevalier has always impressed with the fine, original flavours of the terroir of this appellation. The 2020 is typical of Chevalier and in its Burgundian style rather red berry with a silky texture but enormous pressure on the palate and impresses with a beautiful balance right up to the long finish.
