Domaine de Chevalier Pessac-Leognan Blanc 2014

The 2014 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc offers orange blossom, quince and dried honey on the well-defined bouquet. I like the manner in which this unfolds with aeration. The palate is well balanced with great depth, very well judged acidity with just the right amount of salinity and a brisk, focused finish.

What an outstanding white from Pessac. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
