Domaine de Chevalier blanc 2020

Wineadvocate

Another terrific vintage for this wine, the 2020 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc unwinds in the glass with aromas of nectarine, pear, nutmeg, passionflower and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, with racy acids and a bright, pure profile, it nips at the heels of the brilliant and somewhat racier, more refined 2019. - WK 04/2023

Vinous

The 2020 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc marries power and tension so well. Lemon confit marzipan, chamomile, dried orchard fruit and crushed flowers all build effortlessly into the expansive, beautifully resonant finish. Above all else, the Blanc is a wine of savory/mineral complexity and structure. I wouldn't dream of touching a bottle anytime soon. Tasted two times. (Drink between 2026-2050) - AG 02/2023

Beck

Bouquet complexe et fin. Nuances de fleurs de tilleul, de citronnelle et de zestes de mandarines. Caractère équilibré et friand en bouche. Le vin a une certaine ampleur, une belle intensité aromatique et une structure qui assure la fraîcheur ainsi que la persistance fruitée de la finale. Même s’il affiche un certain potentiel, je pense qu’il sera bénéfique de le savourer dans sa jeunesse déjà.  2023-2035

Suckling

A dense, creamy DC white with lots of rich cooked-apple, mineral, cream and praline character. It’s full and very layered with chewy intensity and a long, bitter-lemon and almost honey finish. Pretty phenolic tension, too.

Dunnuck

Ripe melon, honeyed mint, and dried herb notes all emerge from the 2020 Domaine De Chevalier Blanc, a medium-bodied, rich, concentrated, yet tight and backward white built for the cellar. Mostly Sauvignon yet with a good chunk of Semillon, this balanced, focused, incredibly impressive dry white needs 3-5 years of bottle age and, I suspect, will evolve for 15+ years. - 03/2023
