Profoundly concentrated yet remarkably refined, 2010 Chateau Cheval Blanc layers dark cassis and black cherry fruit with nuances of cocoa, aromatic tobacco, spice and cedar, all wrapped in silken but densely packed tannins. The Cabernet Franc shines here, giving lift, perfume and a cool, leafy complexity that balances the wine’s power and depth. Still youthful and tightly wound, it promises extraordinary complexity and length as it continues to evolve in bottle.
