Beautiful dark colour. Enchanting nose, floral, peony, rose, lilac, violet. This is found in the mouth, it is a marvel. It offers a depth and a tannicity hemmed in with flowers that belongs only to grace. The finish is almost infinite. It gives an impression of fullness and its tasting is a gustatory hapax in a journey (that of the Primeurs) which includes a certain number of them. The only question now is: when will we see such a marvel again? Vinous, A. Galloni: 98/100; Guide Vert RVF: 98/100

Viticulture

Located on the limestone plateau of St-Emilion, the terroir of Cheval-Blanc includes a great heterogeneity of sedimentary contributions, which has given rise to a complex terroir. The subsoil is essentially composed of clay, sometimes gravel. Average age of the vineyard: 35 years.
