1966 Cheval Blanc

21 Sep 2014:

1966 Cheval Blanc:
Garnet core, lacked limpidity. Bouquet marred by whiffs of volatile acidity and brett initially but dissipated or the underlying character became stronger after a couple of hours. There were notes of coffee, cigar box, caramel, cedar, earth and a stoney minerality. All tertiary, with hardly any fruit quality on the palate. Finishes dry and short. Lacks charm. 16/20
