Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion Grand Cru 2015 750ml
DescriptionThe 2015 Cheval Blanc stands as one of this legendary estate's greatest modern achievements, where perfect conditions created a wine of breathtaking beauty and complexity. This vintage showcases why Cheval Blanc remains Saint-Émilion's most prestigious property alongside Ausone.
The wine opens with an extraordinarily complex bouquet - layers of red and black fruits mingle with violets, exotic spices, and subtle mint. The unique terroir, with its high proportion of Cabernet Franc, creates aromatics found nowhere else in Bordeaux. As it develops, notes of truffle, tobacco, and dark chocolate emerge. On the palate, the texture is pure silk; ultra-fine tannins support waves of flavor, while perfect acidity creates that weightless intensity that defines great Cheval Blanc. The finish seems eternal.
This 2015 will undoubtedly rank among Cheval Blanc's legendary vintages. The combination of ideal conditions and meticulous winemaking has created a wine of profound beauty that will evolve for decades. Whether enjoyed now for its primary splendor or cellared for future generations, this bottle represents the absolute pinnacle of Right Bank Bordeaux - a wine that transcends classification to become art.
