1953 Chateau Cheval Blanc, Saint-Emilion, Bottle (750ml) [Soiled Label]

1953 Cheval Blanc -Robert Parker’s Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1 – Jan 1998: In the fifties, the greatest vintage is the 1953. I am sure this wine has been fully mature for at least 15-20 years. Nevertheless, it has held its magic for that considerable period, and is still the most fragrant, and from an aromatic perspective, the most compelling Cheval Blanc I have ever tasted. Perhaps the 1982 will turn out to be this profoundly perfumed. It is not a blockbuster, but is incredibly seductive, and so soft and silky. Last tasted 3/96
