"More obviously Cheval than the 1961 – great warmth and minerals and gravel. Really pretty together and sweet and concentrated. Lovely! If anything this particular bottle was drinking better now than the bottle of 1961. SO charming and complete! My sort of wine. Just at the perfect stage of evolution, lift and dry finish. 702 hl of this was made at 12.2% alcohol."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
