Stephane Derenoncourt har været konsulent i flere år. Der er sket dramatiske forbedringer her i de sidste tre år. Sort, violet, rubinrød. En utrolig kraftig næse for Domaine de Chevalier. Fyldig rød og sort frugt, brombær, blåbær, sorte kirsebær, masser af race, krydret jord. Syngende, næsten dramatisk næse. Minder næsten mere om Haut Brion med et godt strejf af Richebourg fra Bourgogne. Lidt appelsinskal, et strejf af La Mission. Smukt moden og rødfrugtet mund. Røde kirsebær, friske blommer, ribs, skovjordbær, fin dominikansk tobak. Salt, stenpulver, fint, fuld af frugt, fuld af charme. Syngende syre løber igennem fra start til slut. Smuk lang finish, igen meget burgundisk og berusende. Fin og alligevel fyldig. Kraftigt sødmefuld og alligevel hurtig og frisk. Stor finessevin, den bedste nogensinde!

Suckling om: Domaine de Chevalier rouge

Dark fruits such as raspberries and blueberries with subtle perfume on the nose. Full body, with super well-integrated tannins and a fresh and clean finish. Racy young wine. Shows classy structure and richness. Try in 2018. 96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Domaine de Chevalier rouge

Clearly in its prime drinking window, the 2010 Domaine De Chevalier is gorgeous stuff, offering a complex mix of both red and black fruits, truffly earth, chocolate, and some meaty, bloody notes. Incredibly concentrated, it's medium to full-bodied, has ripe tannins, outstanding balance, and remarkable length. This absolutely classic Domaine de Chevalier will evolve gracefully over the coming 4-5 decades. Drink 2025-2065.

Parker om: Domaine de Chevalier rouge

This is one of my all-time favorite wines from Domaine de Chevalier, a silky, rather classic Pessac-Leognan with notes of scorched earth, tobacco leaf and black and red currants, but no hard edges. Fragrant, complex aromatics are followed by a savory, expansively flavored wine made from a final blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. The wine hit 13.5% natural alcohol, which must certainly be among the highest they have ever achieved, even eclipsing the 2009. An opulent, precocious style of wine that seems much more developed, complex and delicious than I thought from barrel, this beauty can be drunk in 5-6 years or cellared for 20 or more. 95/100

Neal Martin om: Domaine de Chevalier rouge

Tasted at the Union de Grand Cru and at the chateau. The Domaine de Chevalier has a well-defined bouquet that demands coaxing from the glass. It is a shy little thing, most likely due to bottling, but it unfurls in the glass to offer intense dark cherry, bilberry, cedar and melted tar. It is extremely well defined as if you could pick out the thread of each scent one by one. The palate is medium-bodied with blackberry, tapenade and cedar. It is crisp and nicely focused on the finish, compact and tensile, certainly a Domaine de Chevalier that will require far more bottle age than the 2009. Excellent. 95/100
