Château Cheval Blanc 2000 (5 BT)

Château Cheval Blanc 2000 

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)

Excellent levels and appearance; Excellents niveaux et apparence

Harvest from 14 September to 28 September and a generous 42hl/hectare produced. They recorded 14.9% in the Merlot from clay this year. 50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Merlot. In 2021, this has great freshness and charm on the nose, surprisingly young - although this is a feature of the best 2000s. On the palate, plummy fruitiness and finesse of texture make it so drinkable now, while waiting for the cherries and leather to develop further. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

A wonderful collection of Bordeaux from a pristine modern cellar, comprising all the leading names and the best vintages produced between 2000 and 2010. All the wines were purchased directly from one of the most reputable and established Bordeaux Négociants. This cellar has an incredible selection of bottles, magnums and double magnums from two of the most iconic vintages produced in the past 20 years with an impressive quantity of First Growths. Highlights includes the now legendary 2000 and 2005 vintages with all the First Growths in original wooden cases together with rarities such as Le Pin 2005 in magnum. This is evidently the cellar of a wine lover with true passion and extremely discerning tastes and is a collection that is sure to have global appeal.
