Description
Château Cheval Blanc 1966
St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)
6 bts - u. 1bn, 2vts, 1ts, 1t/hs, 1hs, bin soiled labels and corroded capsules, 6 bts - u. 1bn, 4vts, 1hs, bin soiled labels, 1 with tear down right side, corroded capsules
Vintage from 22 September to 4 October. A low 21 hl/hectare was made. 12.2% alcohol. There was some new equipment in the chai this year, new concrete vats and cooling equipment to control fermentation temperatures - progress! The heat and dryness of the summer produced an intense tannic wine - real saddle leather. In 2014, it has obviously softened, but remains rich and winning, becoming even more scented in the glass.
