Halloween Special 2012 Château Cheval Blanc Saint-emilion Grand Cru Classé, Bordeaux, France Massive 60% Savings [aMmVGyzB]

ABOUT THIS WINE

The 2012 vintage of Château Cheval Blanc was meticulously crafted from a blend of Merlot (52%) and Cabernet Franc (48%), two varietals that thrive on the estate’s distinctive terroir. Harvested by hand, the grapes were carefully sorted before fermentation in small stainless-steel vats. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation in oak barrels, where it was aged for 18 months. This traditional yet innovative approach to winemaking, combined with the exceptional quality of the 2012 harvest, resulted in a wine that is both powerful and refined.
