    L'Esprit De Chevalier

    "Domaine de Chevalier is renowned for its ability to produce great wines even in unfahionable vintages thanks to its unique terroir and a draconian selection in the vineyard and the cellar. Grapes that go into the Esprit de Chevalier must produce wine that is complex, well-balanced, well-structured and, above all, elegant enough to be in keeping with Chevalier's image."
