Domaine de Chevalier 2020 is an elegant and characterful red wine from Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux, with impressive depth, freshness, and classic balance. This vintage appears concentrated and harmonious, with a refined expression and strong aging potential.

The aroma offers blackcurrants, black cherries, blueberries, and dark plums, complemented by floral notes, pepper, cedar, tobacco, a hint of smoke, and fine spices. The taste is full-bodied and precise, with dense fruit, silky tannins, fresh acidity, and nuances of dark berries, herbs, minerality, and subtle vanilla tones in a long, elegant finish.

This wine pairs excellently with beef, veal, lamb, duck, game, as well as braised, grilled, and oven-roasted dishes – an obvious choice for exclusive dinners and special occasions.

95 /100

The 2020 Domaine de Chevalier is a touch more tightly wound than the brilliant 2019 out of the gates, but it seems likely to equal that vintage with a bit of time. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of minty blackberries and cassis mingled with notions of burning embers, spices, rose petals and orange rind, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated, with a deep core of fruit, powdery structuring tannins and a long, saline finish. As I wrote last year, this estate in recent vintages has arrived at a sort of stylistic contemporary classicism that evokes the great wines of yesteryear from this address, and the 2020 continues that trend. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

95 /100

Exactly as you hope to find a great Bordeaux at this stage, still very much firm in its tannic structure, rippled with clear cinnamon, turmeric and black pepper notes alongside creamy cassis, blackberry, bilberry, cigar box, smoked earth. A brilliant Chevalier. 38hl/h yield.

95 /100

Dark ruby, with purple reflections and a dark core, subtly brighter at the rim. Ripe plum, black cherry, with sweet and savoury nuances, and some vanilla. Juicy, with sweet cherry, fine fruit expression and ripe round tannins, the wine has minerality, shows good length, and will benefit from further bottle ageing.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
