A giant of a wine. The complex aromas and thickly textured flavors range from plum and raisin to coffee, minerals and mint. Not so elegant as a typical Cheval; more in the mold of the powerful '47 and legendary '21. Drink or hold.--Cheval-Blanc vertical.

A red that I have always appreciated. Beautiful aromas of licorice, spice, flowers and dried fruits such as prunes. Full-bodied with soft and fine tannins and ripe fruit. The rich, dried fruit character was fabulous with minced Peking Duck in lettuce leaf.

A glorious wine, and one of the candidates for the wine of the vintage, Cheval Blanc’s 1983 shows far more evolved color than its older sibling, the 1982. With explosive aromatic notes of sweet jammy plum, black currant, smoke, coffee, and Asian spice, opulent, medium to full-bodied and lush, this is a gorgeous, very sexy, seductive style of Cheval Blanc that has been consistently delicious from the time it was bottled. It shows no signs of decline despite some increasing amber in the color. The tannins are still sweet, the fruit very present, and the wine totally intact. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted, 1/03.

Château Cheval Blanc
Annata dopo annata, producendo vini fenomenali, alcuni dei quali sono i più celebri del mondo, il leggendario Château Cheval Blanc è sulla cresta dell'onda. Bernault Arnault e Albert Frère acquistarono la proprietà alla fine degli anni '90 e, senza badare a spese, i due soci puntarono a rendere Cheval Blanc il più grande Château sulla Sponda Destra di Bordeaux. Classificato come proprietà Grand Cru Classé A, Cheval Blanc possiede senza dubbio il maggior numero di vigne di Cabernet Franc di Bordeaux. Al confine della denominazione Pomerol, con oltre la metà dei 39 ettari di terreno impiantati a Cabernet Franc, la tenuta è composta da quarantacinque lotti separati e sparsi in tutta la regione. Questi appezzamenti così frammentati e l'alta percentuale di Cabernet Franc determinano la grande complessità del vino. Un Cheval Blanc in stile classico può essere descritto dagli aromi di frutti neri e spezie ricchi, concentrati e intensamente complessi. Almeno dieci anni d’invecchiamento sveleranno al meglio la struttura serica del Grand Vin, lo Cheval Blanc. Un vino senza rivali.
