Domaine de Chevalier Rouge Grand Cru Classé AC Pessac-Léognan

The Domaine de Chevalier Rouge shows how classic and at the same time focused a red Pessac-Léognan can be: dense dark fruit, fine spice, and a clear mineral line.

The estate belongs to the Grands Crus Classés of the Pessac-Léognan appellation south of Bordeaux. The red wine is created as a traditional assemblage of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. It was aged in barriques, some of them in new oak, which gives it structure and depth.

In the glass, it glows deep ruby red with garnet-red reflections. On the nose, baked plum and dark berry compote meet spices, cedar wood, garrigue, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, the wine feels dry, dense, and precise, with juicy fruit, mineral pull, and velvety integrated tannins. The finish is long and clearly defined.

Recommendation: Serve it at 16–18 °C, preferably decanted beforehand. It goes with grilled entrecôte, braised lamb with rosemary, duck breast with mushrooms, or mature hard cheese.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
