Fans of white Bordeaux wine need to be all over this gem. One sniff, and sip, and you are hooked. I do not know where to start. Complete in every way, the wine kicks off with a nose that explodes with its orange rind, honeysuckle, lemon puree, flowers, green apples, spice, and herbs. As striking as that was, it is the incredible purity in the endless waves of citrus, and yellow tropical fruits that seal the deal. From there, the only thing left is the electric, seamless finish that once it gets started, it doesn't want to quit. This gem competes with many of the worlds great wines, and it sells for a fraction of what they sell for. The wine blends 75% Sauvignon Blanc, and 25% Semillon. This is the best white wine ever produced by the Bernard family at Domaine de Chevalier. Don't miss it! Drink from 2024-2050.
Amsterdam UGCB Tasting (Zuiderkerk): Merveilleux. Elegant, frangrant, white peach, juicy and supple, gentle bitters, flowers, long and flowing chalky finish.

UGCB tasting-Amsterdam 2021 Bordeaux 03-04-2024: A refined wine, subtle vanilla, a whiff of caramel, very good citrus, elegant and fruit driven in the midtaste and finishing with excellent bitters. I dare to give 95 points, but give this wine another year to prove this level.

UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: Beautiful white fruits, fresh citrus, beautifully dosed oak, concentrated and with a long finish. Great wine and probably with a long future.
