Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1978
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
In original wooden case. Bin-soiled labels. Levels: seven base of neck, five top-shoulder
Tasting note: One of the most satisfactory '78s. Still very fragrant and distinctive, though a trace of acidity which would not have been noticeable if drunk with food ****M.B.
