Description

Château Cheval Blanc 2012

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

54% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Franc. In 2016, this utterly reinforces my view that it is a mega star of the vintage. This is a stunning wine, jewel-like in its leather and black fruit opulence. It is just stand-out, in every way, particularly marrying fat and glycerol with really noble class, as is its wont. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

This is a stunning collection of Claret which includes all the First Growths, spanning just over a decade from the highly-regarded 2005 to the 2016 vintage, one of the most exciting vintages of recent years. All purchased from reputable French wine merchants and stored in a private cellar with temperature control
