Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1964
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Corroded and damaged capsules, one cut to reveal original cork branding. Very badly bin-soiled labels, faded and damaged. Cruse slip labels. Levels: one base of neck, seven top-shoulder, three upper and one mid/upper-shoulder. In carton
Tasting Note: Picked between 22 September and 9 October. One of the loveliest of all the '64s. Fine and fruity cask sample and steady, invariably pleasant development, 'full, soft, velvety, stylish and rounded' in 1973..Then a well-nigh perfect bottle: harmonious, a point, dry finish at Hugh Johnson's Bordeaux Club dinner, December 2001. M.B.
