One of the most consistent and greatest value wines of Bordeaux, we admit to a serious soft spot for the wines of Domaine de Chevalier. Blessed with the climate, terroir and capability to fashion both reds and whites of fabulous quality, DDC is a producer with a wonderful track record; whilst universally excellent vintages like 2005 and 2009 deliver incredible quality, it’s the ‘off-prime’ vintages which show the class of the estate, especially for the reds: their 2006 is staggeringly good and the 2007 scores the same as the legendary millennium vintage. The whites regularly score 95 or more from Robert Parker and at less than one fifth the price of Haut Brion Blanc, it’s an absolute steal – the epitome of quality dry white Bordeaux at a fabulous price.
