Description

Château Cheval Blanc 1947

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

Reconditioned with new labels and capsules in 1997, labels slightly scuffed, 2 slightly nicked, very good overall levels, colour and clarity

Vintage from 15 September to 4 October. 14.4% alcohol. We all know about the difficult fermentations (ice in the vats!), extremely high residual sugar and volatile acidity. It can shout blackcurrants and sweetness, as well as coffee and chocolate, something of a Bailey's Cream of a wine! I have seen bottles of perfect provenance that have a thick Portiness unlike any other wine plus fireworks on the finish, truly overwhelming. I would always take the 1949 and 1948 over it, but that is a personal stylistic preference! In 2011 at the Château, a great nose of dark chocolate and vanilla pod, almost vanilla bourbon. Such incredible depth and persistence of bouquet. Like a beautiful, soft liqueur, so dense and yet now so palate-caressing. Cocoa powder at the end. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

於9月15日至10月4日間收採,酒精14.4%。發酵過程艱辛的一年(發酵桶內有冰塊!),高糖分及酸度。充滿黑加侖子甜香,還有咖啡及巧克力味道。我曾經嚐過來源完美的,像濃厚的砵酒一樣,收結如煙花般璀璨,擁有懾人的氣勢。2011年於酒莊品嚐,美妙的黑巧克力及雲呢拿芳香,像威士忌般極具深度,收結悠長,如出色的甜酒般濃稠,包圍整個口腔,收結巧克力粉般的味道。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
