A beautiful wine, packed with pure, sweet, fresh citrus notes, flowers, honey, vanilla and mineral notes. Concentrated, long, fresh and refreshing, this is a great wine to lay down, or drink now. Tasted Jan 2016

(still on its lees) Hazy appearance. Musky, captivating aromas of lime, lemon drop, grapefruit, honeysuckle and quinine. Dense, sappy and ripe but with terrific lemony cut and firm spiciness buffering the wine's sweetness. This powerful, long wine really saturates the palate. Finishes classically dry. I loved this last spring, and today I find more precision and grip than the young 2005 shows.

Offers lemon, fennel, light vanilla and cream, with a hint of candle wax. Full-bodied, with cream, milk and toasty oak and plenty of ripe fruit, but rather tight and subdued now. Needs a little bottle age.

The colour is a soft, pale gold that’s more yellow than green as age creeps up on it. The saline finish is evident and adds a beautiful mouthwatering touch, alongside hints of saffron, spice, fleshy white fruits and lovely spiced pear. It’s well structured, with further life ahead.

Part of Tasting 40 years of Domaine de Chevalier white wines

Tasted at the chateau. The 2004 has a stony, slightly smoky nose, lacing just a little focus although that may come with time. The palate is medium-bodied with good acidity, though lacking a little complexity on the second half. Quite Burgundian for a Domaine de Chevalier – I have a feeling this may improve with bottle age. Drink 2012-2020+ Tasted September 2008.
