Cheval Blanc and Yquem's famed winemaker, Pierre Lurton, fashions this wine at his home estate. It is a delicious, up-front, fruity, silky-textured, medium-bodied Bordeaux possessing plenty of red and black currant fruit as well as notions of wood spice and earth. Consume it over the next 3-4 years. Good value. Feb 2009, www.robertparker.com
