CHÂTEAU CHEVAL BLANC 1982

Château Cheval Blanc 1982

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

u. 7bn, rest good levels, excellent appearance

In 2019, one is just so amazed that it is so youthful - a huge, all-enveloping, black fruit mouthful. To think that 54hl/hectare were made, that magic combination of quality and quantity. And only 12.8% alcohol. Super-class, concentrated richness and a hint of 'iron in its soul'. Velvet in the mouth, with an astonishing blackberry finish that I have not seen before. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
