Domaine de Chevalier Pessac-Léognan Blanc

Pessac-Léognan, France
One of the world's greatest dry white wines — Domaine de Chevalier Blanc (70% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Sémillon) is fermented and aged in French oak barriques, producing a wine of extraordinary complexity that develops for 20-30 years. Young, the wine shows grapefruit, white peach, and new oak; at 10-15 years it reveals lanolin, beeswax, honey, and the distinctive Graves mineral character. A rival to the finest white Burgundy for longevity and intellectual complexity. One of fine dining's most compelling cellar selections.

Domaine de Chevalier Blanc — one of the world's greatest dry whites — achieves its finest expression with langoustines and bisque. The wine's grapefruit and honeyed barrel complexity amplifies the langoustine's natural sweetness; the tarragon bridges the wine's herbal character; Sauternes cream adds a sweet-rich dimension the Chevalier white handles with authority. A Pessac-Léognan fine dining pairing of the highest order.

At 8-12 years, Domaine de Chevalier Blanc's honeyed Graves complexity and extraordinary mineral depth creates one of the world's great white wine and fish pairings: the turbot's firm flesh and delicate flavour is amplified rather than overwhelmed by the wine's richness. Caviar adds a brine-mineral note that echoes the wine's Graves terroir character.
