Château Cheval Blanc 2001 (12 BT)

Château Cheval Blanc 2001 

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

u. 12vts

Vintage from 24 September to 8 October. 34 hl/hectare made.  68% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Franc.  Black cherry projected scent plus roasting coffee notes.  Full frontal Merlot, but with such extraordinary freshness, a very 2001 feature and part of the success of this vintage on the Right Bank.  Beautiful, clear definition.  It still has a youthful nose and lovely sweetness on the palate. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
