The 2012 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc is a superb wine and clearly one of the greatest wines of the vintage- of either color! The deep, elegant and classic nose wafts from the glass in a mix of lime peel, fresh-cut grass, petrol, fresh figs, tart orange, vanillin oak and a complex base of chalky minerality. On the palate the wine is deep, fullish and crisp, with lovely focus and grip, superb mid-palate concentration, bright acids and a very long, classy and dancing finish. This is a beautiful DDC Blanc- complete and utterly refined- and clearly the finest white produced here since the stellar 2007. (Drink between 2016-2035)
