Reviewed February 2018Impressive aromas and flavors of violets, blueberries and blackberries. This has a very plush and open-knit palate. A supple, fleshy and seductive style. Drink or hold.

This is a delicious second wine, one to get hold of and enjoy over the next five to seven years. It's luscious black fruits are effortless. (JA)

The 2015 L'Esprit de Chevalier is medium garnet-purple in color with a nose of tar and tilled soil with dried herbs, warm cherries and mulberries plus an accent of red currants. The medium-bodied mouth is firm, chewy, savory and earthy on the finish. (LPB)

2015 presents a perfect opportunity to experiment with the second wines of the pricey Chateaux. And l'Esprit de Chevalier is a classic example of that. It is at the same time complex, with floral notes, along brown sugar and beautiful fruit, but it needs a good decanting to be thoroughly appreciated right now. Another option: buy a case and put away.
