The year 2020 has been marked by dry summers and severe heat during the autumn. Château Cheval Blanc 2020 reflects perfectly these climatic conditions, with an intense, ripe nose and a powerful, dense tannic structure.

Tasting notes…

The aromas are typical of a warm vintage. Black fruit mingles with notes of garrigue and pepper. The minty freshness holds the aromatic ensemble well.The attack is opulent. The power and density of the wine are remarkable, and the mouth lingers thanks to a rich and full tannin structure. The wine lengthens as it tightens to an impressive finish.
