Description
Château Cheval Blanc 1970
St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)
Lot 7668: Previous owner purchased from Sotheby's 'Cheval Blanc, Yquem and Dom Perignon Treasures Direct From The Cellars' in Hong Kong, 21 May 2010, u. 4bn, excellent levels, appearance, color and clarity, with new labels and capsules, in original tissues, recorked at the Chateau in 1991, Lot 7669: Previous owner purchased from Sotheby's 'Cheval Blanc, Yquem and Dom Perignon Treasures Direct From The Cellars' in Hong Kong, 21 May 2010, u. 3bn, excellent levels, appearance, color and clarity, with new labels and capsules, in original tissues, recorked at the Chateau in 1991, Lot 7670: Previous owner purchased from Sotheby's 'Cheval Blanc, Yquem and Dom Perignon Treasures Direct From The Cellars' in Hong Kong, 21 May 2010, with new labels and capsules, in original tissues, recorked at the Chateau in 1991, 2 slight signs of seepage
A generous 40 hl/hectare was made. The vintage took place from 24 September to 6 October. 12% alcohol. I was amazed at how fresh this still was on the nose at 37 years old. It remains a fine 1970, although there is considerable bottle variation due to bottling practices at the time. It is pretty solid, with that Cheval sweet finish. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
