Michael Broadbent

(04-2002)
Soft, rich, delicious aftertaste.

Wine Spectator

(03-1999)
This vintage shows notable bottle variation at Cheval; we had a good one, fragrant with plum, floral and spice aromas, round and velvety on the palate, balanced and long.

90 / 100

Jean-Marc Quarin

(5-2000) Tasted not decanted. Dark red. Average intensity. Evolved. Nose. Average intensity. Discreet. Merlot. Creamy. Net attack developing on a rather ample and juicy structure, which evolves ample and fat, but monolithic. Nice persistence, without however having the fine grain and the subtle shades known today of the vintage. Good but not great.

17.5/20

Jancis Robinson

(1-2014) An extraordinarily burgundian red bordeaux. Pale ruby, very light and fresh - sweet and perfumed. Cool somehow and pretty rather than beautiful. Very slightly slight.
