Sunday, July 30, 2006 - 1985 Cheval and 1990 Cheval. Continuing our Cheval theme of last night, tonight we had 90 and 85. The 85 was first. I continue to think that 85 bordeaux is drinking exceptionally well right now. The 85 was simply a pleasure, with the typical Cheval palate, and that something extra that I've enjoyed in recent 1985 Cheval's. The 90 was spectacular. I've had a lot of this wine, and in the late 90's it was my favorite Cheval. But I've had some less than perfect bottles over the years as well. This wine you could call a meal. It was chewy, each sip was a mouthful, and it had that caramel flavor that was so incredible. Its somewhat of a freak, I must say. But yummy.
