James Suckling: 97 Points
"Suave spicy oak and warm stony aromas making immediate interest and giving way to vivid and fresh dark cherries blackberries and cassis. The palate adds graphite-like savory cherry-stone flavors amid smooth velvety tannins. Tangy blackberries through the finish. Impressive. Try from 2020."
Vinous: 97 Points
One of the stars of the vintage the 2015 Domaine de Chevalier has turned out even better than I expected. Bright floral notes give striking aromatic lift to the rich sumptuous fruit. A marvelously complete wine the 2015 is racy and silky on the palate yet also has tremendous fres
Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points
This wine is ripe rich and generous. It brings out the almost-sweet character of the fruit in this vintage. At the same time the tannins are firm and support all this fruitiness. The wine will develop well. Drink from 2024.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
"The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier is composed of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. It went through malolactic and aging on its lees during three months in 35% new 35% one-year-old and 30% two-year-old barrels with a total aging of 18 months. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color it has lovely spiciness on the nose?Chinese five spice and black pepper?with a core of red and black cherries and smoked meats. Medium-bodied finely crafted and refreshing it's quite minerally in the mouth and persistent on the finish."
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
This has a solid core of gently steeped plum and blackberry fruit inlaid liberally with warm ganache and roasted vanilla notes. Warm dark earth details pervade the finish along with hints of tobacco and espresso though this remains suave and perfumy overall. Best from 2021 through 2031. 9167 cases made. ?JM
