- Producer Tasting Notes
- "The weather this year was very favourable to Merlot. This variety accounts for typical ripe red fruit aromas that marry marvellously with the aromatic finesse of ripe Cabernet Franc. 2006 Cheval Blanc has a powerful, attractive nose of ripe red fruit and Virginia tobacco, reflecting the benefits of barrel ageing. The wine starts out full-bodied and rich, combining the smoothness of Merlot and the aromatic elegance of Cabernet Franc. Complementing its impressive fruitiness, the rich tannin and balance go into a wonderful long aftertaste. While not attaining the exceptional concentration of 2005, 2006 Cheval Blanc is a rich, powerful, harmonious wine that will age for decades. 15th April 2010"
