Château Cheval-Blanc--Vintage 1921
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Level: upper-shoulder. Damaged capsule; slightly depressed cork; bin-soiled label. Mise Vandermeulen
One of the greatest 21s. An excellent magnum in Sept 1995: opaque; impressive, rich, leathery nose; full-bodied, powerful, excellent tannins, a touch of astringency. More recently, oxidised, bottled by the normally reliable Vandermeurlen. Last tasted Dec 1995. At best *****
