    Château Domaine de Chevalier stands as an iconic wine estate located in the Pessac-Léognan appellation within Bordeaux, France. With origins dating back to the 17th century, the estate boasts a rich history of winemaking excellence. Its 45 hectares of vineyards benefit from a diverse terroir of gravel, clay, and limestone soils, ideally suited for growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot for red wines, as well as Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon for whites. Classified as a Grand Cru Classé in the Graves Classification of 1953, and for both red and white wines in the 1959 Classification of Graves, Domaine de Chevalier consistently produces wines of exceptional quality and finesse. The red wines are known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential, while the white wines exhibit elegance, freshness, and a vibrant minerality. Under the stewardship of the Bernard family since 1983, the estate remains committed to sustainable viticulture and meticulous winemaking practices, ensuring that each bottle reflects the essence of its prestigious terroir and heritage.
