“I loved the 2019 Domaine De Chevalier Blanc, which has the crisp, racy, yet concentrated style of the estate that few others can achieve. Gorgeous white peach, mandarin orange, honeyed minerality, and a kiss of toast all define the bouquet, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, integrated acidity, plenty of concentration, and a great finish that picks up some obvious minerality. This stunning juice needs 3-4 years of bottle age and will evolve for 2-3 decades if stored correctly. It’s probably the white of the vintage.” (4/2022)

“Very pretty with lovely apple, cream, lavender, pineapple and light honey. Full-bodied, yet creamy and refined, with great length and polish. Fresh acidity, but the finish is polished and pretty. Subtle.” (2/2022)
96 William Kelley for Wine Advocate
“Domaine de Chevalier’s 2019 Blanc is performing brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus pith, white currants, crisp orchard fruit, spring flowers, lemongrass and beeswax. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it’s concentrated and structured, with terrific depth at the core, racy acids and a long, sapid finish. This is a white Bordeaux where the vulgarity of Sauvignon is sublimated rather than emphasized, and the result is a compelling wine of considerable complexity and aging potential.” (4/2022)
94 Neal Martin for Vinous
“The 2019 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc, matured in 35% new oak, has a divine bouquet of mirabelle and (still) that hint of kaffir lime, displaying wonderful mineralité and energy. The palate is very well balanced with fine salinity, good concentration, a little more weight toward the finish than I remember from last year, and a tanginess that provides energy. It gains complexity with aeration. Noble, refined and classy, this is a Domaine de Chevalier from the top drawer.” (2/2022)
