The significant proportion of Merlot brings intense aromas of red and black fruit. Notes of raspberry, cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant embalmed in balsamic and subtle sweet aromas of pastries. A full, attractive attack is redolent of the Merlot of this vintage which is unctuous, round and mouth filling. The Cabernet Franc lends a lovely freshness to the mid-palate and gives the wine length on the finish. This wine is both dense and powerful whilst at the same time soft, unctuous and round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Merlot Blends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bordeaux Reserve Imported\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bordeaux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cellar Link Auctions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42996367917119,"sku":"CHEVBL193","price":1885.43,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/7674\/7071\/files\/chateau-cheval-blanc-1er-cru-grand-classe-2019-med.png?v=1773210314"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.cellarlinkauctions.com\/collections\/chateau-cheval-blanc.oembed","provider":"Cellar Link Auctions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
