The red wine Château Cheval Blanc, vintage 1961 from the winery Château Cheval Blanc has been rated in 2018 by Peter Moser with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc from the region St. Emilion in France.
Medium ruby garnet, good depth of colour with broader ripening at the rim. Delicate caramel on the nose underpinned by ripe plum fruit and pickled cherries along with hints of figs and black olives, which are even more evident on the palate; great sweetness, silky and immensely powerful with a fine honeyed touch on the finish that lingers for minutes. For certain there is further ageing potential here.
