$565.38The Story
One of Bordeaux's most iconic wines, Château Cheval Blanc reveals extraordinary layers of blackberry, plum, violet, graphite, cedar, and exotic spice. Silky tannins, remarkable freshness, and exceptional complexity create a timeless Saint-Émilion with legendary aging potential.
Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, roast lamb, venison, duck breast, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or wild mushroom risotto.
89 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Somewhat of a disappointment in a sometimes great yet variable vintage, the color a dark ruby with amber at the edge, this wine shows sweet plum, fig, and currant notes, along with some herbs and earth. In the mouth, it is surprisingly lightweight for a wine from a superior year, medium-bodied, relatively lush, but an essentially one-dimensional wine with a spicy, surprisingly short finish. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Last tasted, 12/02.
