Domaine de Chevalier (blanc) 2020 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is elegant and offers a certain power in elegance, a nice finesse of the grain, depth as well as a pulpy end. It reveals notes of crunchy peach, peach blossom and slight citrus associated with fine touches of grapefruit, lychee as well as a hint of toasted and almost vanilla. The mouth is fruity and offers juiciness, smoothness, race, nice freshness, purity, a nice structure, accuracy, roundness, some electric hint in its acidity as well as some fattiness in finesse. A nice balance in its richness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy peach, bright apple and slight hints of lychee associated with touches of lemon, quenette as well as hints of sweet pink grapefruit, with a subtle hint of vanilla (in the background) and discrete spikes of white flowers. Good length and sapidity. Some tannic hint in the aromatics and in the aftertaste.
