2014 Domaine de Chevalier

Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Saturday, October 14, 2017 - During a 2014 walkabout arrivage tasting, no tasting notes given, only selective comments. In general I did not walk away excited after sampling ca 40 bottles (to be fair, the big weights were all missing). In a nutshell, while the vintage is pleasant and fresh, it is often too lean, lacking charm and aromatic depth. Still, Bordeaux being Bordeaux the wines are not made for immediate drinking so, I don't see the point in buying them now. There will be plenty of them in the market in 2024 when they reached their peak. TN: This was a decent wine, racy acidity and structure. good fruit core. Needs time. Good but not up there with the top vintages.
