Born on the gravels of Pessac-Léognan, the Chevalier 1985 from Domaine de Chevalier is a Grand Cru Classé with notes of cedar and dark fruits. Its velvety, mineral and fresh palate seduces from now or after cellaring. Perfect with game and cheeses.
Nestled in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, this family estate has embodied the excellence of Graves since the 17th century.
- Terroir: Gravelly and clay-limestone soils, the cradle of great Bordeaux wines, where minerality engages in dialogue with freshness.
- Vinification: Precise and respectful ageing, combining tradition and modernity for cuvées of timeless elegance.

To the eye – A ruby robe with coppery highlights, of a silky density and crystalline clarity.
On the nose – Aromas of candied black cherry, aged cedar, blonde tobacco and undergrowth, lifted by a saline note and a hint of graphite.
