Château Cheval Blanc 1982 (4 BT)

Château Cheval Blanc 1982

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

u. 3vts, 1 into the neck, scuffed and slightly bin-soiled labels, scuffed capsules

54.3 hl/hectare made and only 12.8% alcohol - these facts still amaze! In 2022, that rich, exciting, saddle-leather nose that is inimitable, plus black cherry liqueur. And then an element of dark mystery - this is explosive! Black liquorice on the palate, with immense sweetness. The vigour is show-stopping, with infinite volume and opulence, plus a texture like a great tapestry, intricate and densely woven. A glorious mega kick at the end - where will this go? - clearly, it will be after me! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
