Domaine de Chevalier – Bordeaux – Rose – 2015:

 

Rosé de Chevalier: The Bordeaux Classified Growth Rosé

From the world-renowned Domaine de Chevalier, this is a rosé designed for the connoisseur. Unlike simple summer wines, the Rosé de Chevalier is crafted with the same meticulous standards as the estate’s Grand Cru Classé wines, using the traditional saignée method. The result is a premium, structured, and complex Bordeaux Rosé.

Tasting Profile & Craftsmanship

• Color: Pale, brilliant pink, a true testament to its delicate craftsmanship.
• Aroma: An expressive and elegant nose featuring fresh red berries (wild strawberry, raspberry), a hint of citrus zest, and delicate rose petal nuances.
• Palate: The entry is vibrant and crisp, building to an impressive mid-palate density. It achieves a perfect balance between refreshing acidity and a creamy texture, culminating in a long, complex, and mineral-driven finish.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

This is a serious, gastronomic rosé. Serve chilled (50-54°F or 10-12°C) to fully appreciate its structure.

• Ideal Pairings: Classic Maine Lobster Rolls, Grilled Swordfish with Lemon-Herb Butter, sophisticated Duck Confit Salad, or even light Asian cuisine like spicy tuna tacos.
