Domaine Chevalier 2002
Panel circulating in Burgundy. 2002 bad vintage in Bordeaux and wine has smell of flowers, dried fruit and vanilla. Soft elegant aste with nice body and good length. Score 17,60
Domaine Chevalier 1999
Dried fruit again, dark red colour with hint of brown rim, dark berries and roses on the nose. Drier and firmer tannins, less acidity but still lovely and smooth with long well balanced taste. Score 17,50 with panel still in Burgundy although one drifting to Piemonte.
Domaine Chevalier 2006
Darker red than previous, dried fruit, rose and fresh dark berries on the nose. Long taste, but somewhat bitter although with integrated tannins. Panel now lost or still in Burgundy or drifting from Piemonte to Pomerol. Score 17,60
Domaine Chevalier 2001
The best wine of the evening! Dark red with lovely dried fruit and plus forrest smell. Longer taste than the others, soft elegant tannins, well balanced. Score 18,10 with panel split between right bank and Burgundy.
Panel slightly surprised when told the answer. Wine prices from 25 to 40€.
