Super wine. A lovely vintage for dry white bordeaux - unlike the reds - and this was a winner. A great addition to the Domaine de Chevalier stable, and this last bottle of my dozen was as good as all the others. Creamy, slightly waxy, long, frangipane - just hits so many sweet spots. Great value.... Wow - and NO sign of falling over...

Nose of grass, lemon and saline. On the palate, this has a very pure lemon flavor with saline and mineral mixed in. First glass was kind of sour but second the wine opened up a bit. Ends with a sour lemon and grassy note. Still a bit underwhelming considering the scores it has gotten. Still, has a nice acidity for the warm weather.

Really like this. Aroma of honey, coats mouth slightly, fantastic with pesto

Rather underwhelming. With air the nose opened out, but on the palate rather anaemic, weedy, lightweight. All too peripheral.
