Tasting Notes
The Château Cheval Blanc 2006 is a wine of impeccable structure, depth, and elegance, embodying the estate’s mastery in blending Merlot’s plush richness with Cabernet Franc’s precision and complexity. It presents a deep ruby-garnet color, showing its graceful evolution while maintaining freshness and vibrancy.
On the nose, it is wonderfully aromatic, exuding layers of black cherries, cassis, violets, and truffle, accompanied by refined hints of cedar, graphite, tobacco, and dark chocolate.
The palate is medium to full-bodied, powerful yet incredibly refined, with silky tannins, bright acidity, and a seamless structure. Waves of dark berries, mocha, spice, and earthy nuances unfold with stunning precision, leading to a long, complex, and elegant finish. While already showing exceptional balance and charm, this wine will continue to evolve beautifully for two more decades.
