Château Cheval Blanc 1982 St. Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé 2 bottles "Revealing considerable amber in its dark plum/garnet color, this intensely fragrant 1982 is somewhat of a paradox in that the front end suggests full maturity, but the midpalate finish, and overall texture denote a closed wine. A gorgeously sweet entrydisplays flavors of caramel, roasted coffee, jammy red and black fruits, coconut, and smoke. It is fat and full-bodied, with considerable tannin, structure, and muscle in the finish. Flamboyantly rich and precocious early in life, it is going through an awkward stage where the tannin is present, but it is also sexy, juicy, and formidably structured. When the 1982 Cheval Blanc's component parts become totally in sync, it will be capable of meriting a three digit rating." (99pts RP) 酒色帶黑李子和深紅寶石，這瓶1982的佳釀香氣十足，然而特別的是前段口感熟透，到中段和收結，以至整體質感卻羞澀含蓄。入口甘甜，帶有焦糖、咖啡、紅黑莓子果漿、椰子和煙燻味。它飽滿豐厚，收結時單寧豐富，展現著年輕的風采，在單寧帶動下，果感豐富，結構出色。當他日酒中各樣元素日漸融和，必成為滿分之作。（《葡萄酒倡導家》Robert Parker評分：99）
