Chateau Domaine de Chevalier, Pessac Leognan, 2015
ISELOOMUSTUS
Domaine de Chevalier ajalugu ulatub tagasi 17. sajandisse. Tänapäeval on see suurepärane veinimõis Bernard’ide perekonna omanduses ja veinimõisa juhib Olivier Bernard koos oma naise ja kahe lapsega. Olivier Bernard on alates 1983. aastast viinud läbi mitmeid uuendusi veinimõisas, et viima oma tootmine veel parematele tasemele. 2014. aastal olid nemad ühed esimestest suurtest tegijatest Bordeaux piirkonnas, kes hakkasid kasutama oma veinidel revolutsioonilist Diam korki. Domaine de Chevalier käsutuses on 120 hektarit maad, millest 65 hektarit on viinapuude all ja millest omakorda 63% on Cabernet Sauvignoni all. Viinapuude keskmiseks vanuseks on 30 aastat.
Segu: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot ja 5% Petit Verdot.
AUHINNAD
James Suckling – 97 Points
Suave, spicy oak and warm, stony aromas, making immediate interest and giving way to vivid and fresh dark cherries, blackberries and cassis. The palate adds graphite-like, savory cherry-stone flavors amid smooth, velvety tannins. Tangy blackberries through the finish. Impressive. Try from 2020.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points
The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier is composed of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. It went through malolactic and aging on its lees during three months in 35% new, 35% one-year-old and 30% two-year-old barrels, with a total aging of 18 months. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it has lovely spiciness on the nose—Chinese five spice and black pepper—with a core of red and black cherries and smoked meats. Medium-bodied, finely crafted and refreshing, it’s quite minerally in the mouth and persistent on the finish.
