Domaine de Chevalier 2001 White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Cellar Selection
- $100
This is one of the legendary whites of Bordeaux. It lives up to its reputation. The 2001 vintage of the Domaine de Chevalier white (tasted from half bottle) is well-evolved, packed with flavors of almonds, toast, spice, fresh grapefruits, white fruits and an impressive layer of acidity.

Domaine de Chevalier 2007 White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Cellar Selection
Wonderfully aromatic, this sure-to-be legendary wine offers richness, ripeness, and pure yellow fruits, peaches and apricots, all alongside a structured strain of chalky minerality.

Domaine de Chevalier 2002 White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Cellar Selection
- $100
This is a great wine, which will age almost indefinitely. What makes this wine so great is its complex mix of intense fresh fruits, flavors of pink grapefruit and subtle wood. But there is also a depth of acidity, which shows how well this wine will age.

Domaine de Chevalier 2010 Barrel sample White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Online Exclusive
94-96 Full, and powerful, the wine has weight, an almost Burgundian richness, although never losing sight of the herbaceous edge of Sauvignon Blanc. Packed with power, still food friendly.

Domaine de Chevalier 2008 Barrel sample White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Online Exclusive
94-96 Barrel sample. A wine that opens slowly. Then the concentration and rich fruit come through. It gives a smooth texture over layers of toast, but never losing sight of freshness.

Domaine de Chevalier 2008 White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive

A superb wine. Oily textured, very rich, its fruit ripe. Pear, honey and yellow fruits are allid with taut acidity and light hints of wood. Likely to age over many years.

Domaine de Chevalier 2009 Barrel sample White (Pessac-Léognan)
- Online Exclusive
94-96 Barrel sample. Generous, ripe wine, its fruit a great melange of sweetness, fresh crispness and layers of bright spice and lemon zest. Great balance.
