Owner's words
Nose of great class, bursting with floral aromas, white fruits, and citrus. Fragrances of spring wildflowers such as hawthorn and honeysuckle enrich the bouquet. The palate is rich, full-bodied, smooth, and well-structured, with both intense and caressing acidity. Finesse, purity, harmony, balance, and remarkable length. Freshness is omnipresent. A great Domaine de Chevalier Blanc.
