98 points James Suckling: "Instantly impressive nose with pristine lemons and limes as well as subtly flinty, reductive notes. The palate has power and direction, not to mention impressive yeast lees influence and perfectly integrated oak. Power, impressive tension and length. Drink this young or with some considerable age. It will deliver at both ends. (1/22/18)"
95 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (Wine Advocate): "The Domaine de Chevalier 2015 Blanc is composed of 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Sémillon, fermented in barrel (35% new), and aged for 18 months on the lees with stirring. It opens with lovely lemon tart, fresh grapefruit and pineapple with a waft of honeysuckle. The medium-bodied palate is very tightly knit with wonderfully crisp acid and a citrusy finish. Drink: 2020-2035. (2/21/18)"
95 points Wine Spectator: "This has a full and enticing feel, with a shortbread note leading off, followed by lemon curd, peach, tangerine, salted butter and yellow apple flavors. Light verbena and heather hints show up through the alluring finish. This has outstanding range and a really gorgeous mouthfeel, and should age wonderfully. (3/31/18)"
95 points Jeff Leve (The Wine Cellar Insider): "Rich, opulent, luscious, and intense, the wine remains on the primary side. Concentrated, ripe, sweet, and packed with layers of fresh yellow citrus, orange rind, crushed rocks, and flowers, give it at least another 5 years to develop additional nuances. (Oct 2021)"
94 points Jane Anson (Inside Bordeaux): "(70% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Sémillon). Pale gold in colour at 10 years, just beginning to deepen but still showing clarity and verve. Shows a deft mix of preserved lemon, saffron, wax, citrus peel, quince and lime zest. Still going strong, as is typical for the superb white wine from Domaine de Chevalier. Alcohol 13.5%. Drink: 2025-2034. (2/6/25)"
94 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (The Wine Independent): "The 2015 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc gives up pronounced notes of lemonade, fresh apricots, and lime leaves with suggestions of straw and crushed stones. The medium-bodied palate is generously fruited, with an approachably soft backbone of acidity and a minerally lift on the finish. Alcohol 13%. Drink: 2022-2030. (11/17/22)"
