The 2007 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc was raised in only thirty percent new wood this year, and this has allowed the more gentle raw materials of the vintage to show exceedingly well, making this wine by quite a wide margin the most impressive white Graves that I tasted at the UGC events. The nose is deep and really classy, as it jumps from the glass in a blaze of apples, fresh figs, petrol, grassy tones, a lovely base of soil and a judicious framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, fullish and complex, with a juicy core of fruit, bright acids, lovely focus and a long, crisp and classic finish. A lovely, middleweight example of DDC Blanc for drinking over the next fifteen or so years- premature oxidation notwithstanding.
