| Description: | This is the second label of the esteemed Cheval Blanc estate in Saint Emilion, which is situated on the Pomerol border. Cheval Blanc produces wines of opulent richness, with lush tannins and incredible fragrance. The vineyard is planted to 58% Cabernet Franc and 42% Merlot, with very old vines averaging 50+ years, and Cheval Blanc is considered to be, "Undoubtedly one of Bordeaux's most profound wines." Robert Parker. Ruby red color, characteristic of its youth. The nose starts out intense, with balsamic notes and aromas of cocoa, caramel, and vanilla, combined with fruity nuances reminiscent of cherry and strawberry. Swirling in the glass enhances these fruity hints. The wine's freshness is brought out with licorice overtones along side wonderfully expressive notes of Virginia tobacco. On the palate, this wine is rich, full-bodied and silky, with round, delicate and smooth tannin mid-palate. The long finish is redolent of very ripe red fruit. |
