Level: mid low shoulder; corroded capsule, heavily bin soiled label
1 bottle per lot

ABOUT THE WINE
There is no secret to the great wines of Cheval-Blanc. First and foremost they have a superbly situated vineyard which encompasses the Château and borders with Pomerol. Each block of vines is picked separately and by hand, with an average yield of 40 hl/ha. Predominantly Cabernet Franc, rather than Merlot and planted on a unique mixture of clay and gravel soils, it has no peer in Saint-Émilion and few anywhere in the world.
