Description
Lisa Perrotti-Brown: The blend this year is 15% Cabernet Sauvignon,
29% Cabernet Franc and 56% Merlot, possessing an unusually high
percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple colored, the
2017 Cheval Blanc needs a fair bit of coaxing to reveal notions of
plum preserves, redcurrant jelly, kirsch and red roses plus
emerging nuances of aniseed, Sichuan pepper, pencil lead and
charcoal. Medium to full-bodied, the palate offers impressive
intensity with layer upon layer of red and black flavors with
sparks of minerals and floral notes plus a firm line of
fine-grained tannins and bold freshness to support, finishing very
long and very fragrant.
