Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1947
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Level: very top shoulder; château bottled, modern capsule--cut to verify producer and vintage, thought to be recorked, date unknown
"What can I say about this mammoth wine that is more like port than a dry red table wine? The 1947 Cheval Blanc exhibits such a thick texture, it could double as motor oil. The huge nose of fruitcake, chocolate, leather, coffee, and Asian spices is mind-boggling. The unctuous texture and richness of sweet fruit are amazing." Robert Parker, Bordeaux 3rd Ed.
