Tasting Notes
The Château Cheval Blanc 2003 is a rich, opulent, and beautifully structured wine that showcases the estate’s unique ability to create balanced and refined wines, even in warm vintages. It presents a deep ruby-garnet color, revealing its maturity while maintaining remarkable vibrancy.
On the nose, it is exceptionally aromatic, with layers of ripe blackberries, cassis, dried roses, truffle, and cedar, enhanced by subtle notes of graphite, tobacco, and exotic spices.
The palate is full-bodied, velvety, and impressively structured, offering silky tannins, fresh acidity, and incredible length.

This wine is at a beautiful stage of evolution, with ample complexity and elegance, yet still has decades of life ahead.
