One of the most profound wines of the vintage is the 2023 Cheval Blanc, a striking wine that stands out for its strong sense of identity and seamless integration at such an early stage in its life. Wafting from the glass with notes of mulberries, lilac, dark fruits, iris root and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with a gourmand core of cool, vibrant fruit that entirely conceals its sweet structuring tannins, concluding with a long, perfumed finish. It's a blend of 52% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, drawing on fully 46 of the blocks that make up Cheval Blanc, and it attained 13.8% alcohol.
Assemblage : 52% Merlot , 46% Cabernet Franc , 2% Cabernet Sauvignon
James Suckling 98-99
This is so cabernet, with blackcurrants, blackberries,
crushed stone, graphite and lead pencil. Full-bodied with
tight, chewy tannins that remain fine yet energetic.
Winemaker Pierre-Olivier Clouet says this wine is a
benchmark for Cheval Blanc. Reminds me of the great
1983. 13.8% alcohol. 52% merlot, 46% cabernet franc and
2% cabernet sauvignon
