Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1986
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
In original wooden cases. Lot 98 two slightly damaged capsules, lot 99 three slightly damaged, lot 100 two damaged. Excellent appearance. Levels base of neck or better
Tasting note: Another wine that seems to have some youthful characteristics, a high level of tannin and a lack of succulence and substance may ultimately prove to produce a wine somewhat out of balance. The wine shows plum, fig, cherry, earthy, mineral notes and medium body, but the elevated tannins in the finish are distracting. Nevertheless, the wine has a youthfulness and vigor that make it far less evolved than its more seductive older siblings, the 1983 and 1985. Last tasted, 12/02 Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 4th Edition Jan 2003
