Domaine de Chevalier--Vintage 1961
Lognan (Graves), cru class. Chteau-bottled
Lot 91 levels: seven top-shoulder or better and one upper-shoulder. Lot 92 one label detached. Levels top-shoulder or better
Tasting note: at the best of times, Chevalier's production is small. In 1961, a superb but reduced vintage, even less. A rare, immensely impressive virtually opaque in colour and tannic bottle produced by Hugh Johnson at a Bordeaux Club dinner in December 1997. M.B.
