Cheval Blanc - St. Emilion 2020

Cheval Blanc - St. Emilion 2020

Like the Poisets this is notably rich with its relatively large-scaled flavors that also enjoy good density thanks to the abundant dry extract that also coats the palate and pushes the firmer supporting tannins to the background

There is very good richness to the round and velvety middle weight flavors that are quite suave and seductively textured

like many of these 2013s

Perhaps the finest wine yet made at Blankiet is the spectacular 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Paradise Hills Vineyard

youthfully austere finish

The utterly compelling 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage and 1

Two bottles were consistent with this profile

and coffee

delicious and persistent finale

There is a velvety and highly seductive character to the wonderfully rich and generous middle weight flavors that also brim with palate coating dry extract before culminating in a seriously long anise-infused finish

remarkable harmony

Lovely quality and overall this is a fine Nuits villages
