Lot #11. Cheval Blanc 2005

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 100 RP.
"The 2005 from Cheval Blanc is a quintessentially elegant, beautiful, deep bluish/ruby-colored wine from St.-Emilion, with raspberry, blueberry, and floral notes, impressive density, great precision, freshness and purity. Full-bodied, but extremely light on its feet, I don’t mean to gush, but it is super-intense, rich and just so meticulously crafted! This is another fabulous wine and a perfect expression for this vintage. It is difficult to forget the gorgeous blueberry and raspberry fruit, full body, sweet tannin, a multi-layered texture, and purity and palate presence of this stunning wine. . . .P.S. In 2005, this was 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Merlot." eRobertParker.com #219, Jun 2015
