Community Tasting Note

  • dchain wrote: 92 points

    September 7, 2022 - I really don’t think this is one of the great vintages for Cheval. There are still unresolved tannins after 24 years which is just not a great sign and they are the rough, steamy, tea like tannins which are starting to give a drying finish. The nose however is much better than the palate but it is still dominated by black tea, soil and leaf notes with some underlying black fruit notes. Also a touch of rose at the end which is beautiful. Just not convinced this is the best $1000 bottle of wine you can have by a long way…
