"The ripeness came from the sun in September, but not from high temperatures," said owner Olivier Bernard. "Everyone had the beginnings of rot at the end of August, even in their cabernet, but the sunny, windy weather really blocked its spread." Bernard enlisted the consulting assistance of Stephane Derenoncourt to make the 2002 red, and the young wine was still on its lees at the beginning of April. It will also be racked less frequently than in the past, which should enable the wine to carry more of its sweetness into the bottle. Bernard emphasized that unlike most of the other consulting enologists of the Bordeaux region, Derenoncourt visited the vineyard a good ten times before the harvest.

According to manager Remi Edange, Domaine de Chevalier began the harvest for white grapes on September 6 but brought in the reds late. "We finished on October 6; we needed to pick on that last Saturday because the remaining fruit was starting to rot." There are now three different sortings at Domaine de Chevalier: one in the vines and the other two before and after the fruit is destemmed. As at so many other Bordeaux properties, vinification is done in smaller cuves, thus allowing the estate to harvest with greater precision.
