Score 80/100 · Drink 1990, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

The 1980 Cheval Blanc is a relative success for this mediocre vintage. Medium ruby, with a moderately intense bouquet of herbal, cedary, fruity scents, this wine has medium body, adequate concentration, and a supple, soft finish. Anticipated maturity: Now-may be in decline. Last tasted, 10/90.
