Château Cheval Blanc 1989 (1 IMP)

Château Cheval Blanc 1989

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

u. vts, label very slightly damp spotted, capsule corroded on top, old sign of seepage, cork slightly depressed

The earliest vintage of the century at Cheval Blanc and there were days when the temperature went over 40 degrees Celsius. Close to 50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Franc, which is unusual here. A very generous 47 hl/hectare made. In 2018 and from magnum, this is stunning, with its pure Russian leather bouquet, plus mineral and cocoa notes. So fruity on the palate, with great élan and éclat. Volume, beauty and power, becoming even more sensational in the glass as the dinner progressed. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

這是白馬堡在上世紀最早採收的年份，當年某些日子的溫度甚至超過40攝氏度。幾乎一半梅樂、一半卡本納弗朗，比例非同尋常。產量高達每公頃4,700 公升。2018年品嚐1.5公升裝，教人如癡如醉，富俄羅斯皮革氣息，帶礦物和可可芳香。果味豐富，壯麗奔放，令人叫絕。此酒豐厚醇美，杯中風味愈夜愈佳。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
