2016 Petit Chevalier by Domaine de Chevalier, Pessac Leognan

The second wine of Domaine de Chevalier, one of the leading estates in Pessac-Léognan, from the exceptional 2016 vintage.

"Wonderful, fragrant blackberry and cherry nose with a delicate touch of oak. Concentrated and elegant with a beautiful balance of finely etched dry tannins and very bright acidity. Long, crisp and minerally finish with a ton of energy. Second wine of Domaine de Chevalier. A blend of 45 per cent cabernet sauvignon, 45 per cent merlot and ten per cent petit verdot. Try in 2021."  James Suckling
