Jean-Marc Quarin April - 1997
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark red color. Good intensity. Purple. Nose of medium intensity. Fine. Fruity. Note of pepper. Touch of bell pepper on swirling. Fresh. Soft attack, developing on a supple structure, very fruity, quite rich, which evolves by melting on flavors of cherry chocolate. Coated finish with good persistence, slightly warm and spicy, but also lively. Good persistence.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
 Tasted at the château, the 1996 Domaine de Chevalier certainly surpassed my expectations even though I would caution that I think Olivier Bernard has made better vintages since then. Deep in color, the nose is quite captivating with black fruit, brine and crushed stone. I like the strictness here -- very 1996 in style. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a svelte texture. The bead of acidity lends this tension although I found that finish surprisingly backward and just lacked that peacock's tail that would have warranted a higher score. Of course, there is a chance that this could come with time because it is undeniably very well balanced and pure. It just needs a bit more ... ambition. Tasted July 2016.
