Jeannie Cho Lee

(11-2014) This was not a great year in Bordeaux but the wonderful terroir of Cheval Blanc reveals itself here: Elegant wine that is drinking beautifully now with fading garnet color, pot pourri, dried red flowers on the nose and silky tannins in the finish. Not a long finish, but who cares when it drinks so beautifully now. Points to towards pure drinking pleasure.
