The Cheval Blanc 1988 is what you might call a “solid” Saint Emilion, one that has plateaued in recent years. The nose is quite backward considering its age and demands encouragement, gradually unfurling to reveal dark berries, sage, mint and cigar box aromas that lean towards the Left Bank. The palate is medium-bodied with quite rigid tannins. Fortunately there is sufficient fruit to back it up and then it eases back towards a languid, mushroom-tinged finish. Very fine.
