A RARE IMPERIAL OF 2001 CHEVAL BLANC
Château Cheval-Blanc 2001
Saint-Émilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Slightly stained and bin-soiled label. Level: into-neck
Tasting note: was surprised by how soft, opulent, even voluptuous the 2001 Cheval Blanc performed out of bottle as this estate’s wines tend to shut down when young. Its deep ruby/purple color was accompanied by sweet aromas of cranberries, black currants, menthol, Asian spices, and underbrush. This seductive blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc reveals a lush sweetness, medium body, and ripe, well-integrated tannin. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 153, June 2004
