Château Cheval Blanc 1944

Château Cheval Blanc

The Germans occupy Cheval Blanc for nearly a year when, in June, a gunfire erupted between insurgents and soldiers near the winery. Fortunately, none of the people working in Cheval Blanc will be killed during this battle.

Features of the vintage

Ripening and yields

The harvest takes place from September 26th to October 20th in a liberated France.

If production is important (55 hectoliters per hectare), it is unfortunately mundane wine, if not insignificant, which was not of long aging.

Tasting

This poor vintage is unworthy to celebrate the new freedom, unlike its great follower 1945.
