Château Cheval Blanc 1er GCC A St. Emilion Magnum 2020

If you are looking for the archetype of a St.-Émilion wine, you will very quickly come across one of the very best wines of all: Cheval Blanc. It represents all the legendary characteristics of this premium Libournais appellation: silky power, pure elegance and an impressive tertiary flavour with age. This has a lot to do with the best terroir in the region, the perfection of the winemaking and the special distribution of grape varieties. The proportion of Cabernet Franc is very high here at almost 40%, ensuring a long ageing period in which the Cheval Blanc gains more and more complexity over the years. What is so exciting about this 2020 is the very pronounced florality, which lends a unique freshness, floweriness and delicacy despite the enormous concentration. A magnificent wine!
