CURIOSITIES: The grandson and son of brandy merchants, Olivier Bernard started in the world of wine at a very young age. At the age of 18 he opened his first retail wine shop and in 1983 his father and brothers bought Domaine de Chevalier, in Graves (Bordeaux) and offered him the chance to manage the estate. Under the management of Claude Ricard, former owner of Chevalier and great winegrower, he started his adventure as a winemaker and today he is involved in several projects at the same time. One of them, Clos de Lunes, involves the production of a great dry white wine on a terroir shared with the best of the great vineyards of Sauternes.
