Critic reviews
"With a fresh and delicately fruity bouquet, the 2024 L'Esprit de Chevalier Blanc reveals aromas of confit citrus, flowers and almonds. Light to medium-bodied, round and supple, it's elegant with a juicy mid-palate that leads to a gently bitter finish. This is a real classic at this address."
Yohan Castaing, April 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2024 L'Esprit de Chevalier Blanc has lilting peach skin and Japanese yuzu scents of good intensity and delineation. The palate is well balanced with just a dab of orange rind on the entry. Waxy-textured with zippy acidity, it is a little linear on the finish, but this should gain depth during its élevage."
Neal Martin, April 2025, Vinous.com
"The 2024 L’Esprit de Chevalier Blanc is a tasty second wine. Pliant and supple, with lovely forward fruit, L'Esprit has a lot to offer. Bright floral top notes extend the fine, saline finish. This is all class."
Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Vinous.com
"Bright and lively, with a nice mineral twist to the creamed green kiwis, star fruit and gooseberries. Textured and medium-bodied, with a nice phenolic structure and a lightly saline touch at the end. Quite long. 70% sauvignon blanc and 30% semillon."
