Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1961
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Very slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: five top and one upper-shoulder
Tasting Note: Fourteen other mainly adulatory notes in the 1980s and just five notes, but all good, in the last decade, its sweetness reiterated, also its perfect harmony. Quite the best wine hors classé at an extraordinary dinner in 1996, brilliantly good at Wolf's extensive vertical in 1997, its many layered, almost exotic bouquet growing even richer in the glass. Good length, a slightly nutty, walnut flavour and aftertaste. At best ***** M.B.
