The Domaine de Chevalier located in Léognan, the Capital town of the Graves Region has a long history. It appears on the famous map of Pierre de Belleyme in 1783. In 1983 the estate was purchased by the Bernard Fami-ly, N° 1 in France on the spirits market and a major negociant of premium Bordeaux wines.
It has been run ever since by Olivier Bernard who perpetuates that spirit of balance and the constant drive for perfection which have been the hallmark of this outstanding wine.
The red Domaine de Chevalier, the flagship of the Pessac-Léognan appellation belongs to the elite of the great classified growths of Bordeaux.
The white Domaine de Chevalier is recognized as one of the world’s finest dry wines.

From this Winery
Since 1986, the planting of young vines has meant that the DOMAINE DE CHEVALIER had to craft a second wine, in both white and red.
L’ESPRIT… The Spirit is also a way of making a wine.
The Bernard Family, by calling its second wine L’ESPRIT DE CHEVALIER, wanted above all for it to carry the hall-mark of Chevalier and to reflect the « Spirit » of the estate, combining powerfulness and complexity but also finesse and elegance in total respect of the terroir.
