The Cheval Blanc 1986 has a growing fragrance of weedy tobacco, sweet black berry, raspberry, and cherry fruit, and is still developing. The new oak that was so prominent in the wine’s youth has faded into the background, providing a cedary rather than harsh wood note. This is a defined Cheval Blanc with more of a Medoc personality than typical St.-Emilion grandeur, medium to full-bodied and somewhat tannic.
The wine possesses a developing bouquet that offers up weedy tobacco, juxtaposed with sweet black berry, raspberry, and cherry fruit. The new oak that was so obvious in the wine’s youth has moved to the background, offering more of a cedary character than raw wood. Medium to full-bodied, and moderately tannic, this is a delineated Cheval Blanc with more of a Medoc personality than typical St.-Emilion opulence.
