Domaine de Chevalier Grand Cru Classé de Graves Rouge (2009)

Dominating aromas of smoky new wood follow through to the toasty flavor that covers the fruit at this stage. But, like all 2009s, this is a rich wine that will balance out and show all of its opulence. That said, it will likely always be a firm, age worthy wine, with the dark tannins always in evidence.
