Commemorating his 40th harvest at the helm of the estate, Olivier Bernard has crafted a wine of abundant promise. Evoking aromas of dark wild berries, spices, smoke and licorice, framed by a deft touch of new oak, the 2022 Domaine de Chevalier possesses a medium to full-bodied, concentrated and rich palate, with an elegant, fleshy core of fruit, abundant powdery tannins and a long, delicate and dark berry-inflected finish. Noticeably less toasty and spicy than in the previous year, this estate has positively evolved in style. Matured for 18 months in a combination of new (35%) and used barrels, the 2022 is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc.

Full-bodied, firm and rugged in the mouth with brawny, muscular fruit and a sturdy frame of grainy tannins, it finishes long and savory.
Montrose 2012 shows great structure, ripe fruit, spice and tobacco aromas, with silky tannins and a long, elegant finish.
Robe of intense red colour, dark red shimmering with time. Forest fruit aromas on the nose, especially blueberry and sour cherry. Firm structure with fine tannins.
The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannin. Very well-balanced, this Nenin seems more sophisticated than in recent years.
