L’Esprit de Chevalier White
Pessac Leognan - Second Wine

Description
This second wine of the symbolic Domaine de Chevalier comes from seven hectares of white vines that grow on deep gravel and clay-gravel soils. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted before fermentation takes place in wooden barrels and the wine is aged for 10 months.
This blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon reveals aromas of white peach and grapefruit with a slight saline note in the finish.
The 2024 blend: 70% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Sémillon.
iDealwine En Primeur Tasting Note: A truly delicate wine, very linear, entirely free of the exuberance that Sauvignon Blanc can sometimes bring. An accomplished, well-balanced nectar with good length. “
