1985 Chateau Cheval Blanc - Saint-Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé A - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

This has always been one of the best Cheval Blancs and here it simply hypnotized the audience of diners at The Square. A slight tawny rim. The nose is nothing less than captivating with touches of wild strawberry, espresso, Morello and mint that is just so seamless. The palate is brilliantly balanced with that natural sense of beauty that is so intoxicating. Fabulous. Neal Martin, Robert. Parker The 1985 Cheval Blanc has always been one of the picks of the vintage for what was a fecund decade for the Saint-Émilion. This example shows similarly to previous bottles.
