Robert Parker (90)

Domaine de Chevalier produced one of the finest wines of this vintage in 1988. It is dark ruby, with an unevolved but generous bouquet of smoky new oak, cassis, and flowers. This fleshy, generously-endowed, medium-bodied wine is the finest effort from this property since their 1983.

Winespectator (90)

Slightly earthy and funky, with a barbecue sauce undertone to the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, with soft, silky tannins and finish. Drying out a little now, but still attractive and excellent.
