Jean and Michael,

SC du Cheval Blanc is the company that makes "Cheval Blanc,"
the St Emilion 1ere grand cru of great repute. There is only one
"SC du Cheval Blanc" (forcibly) in France, so if the label says they
made the wine it is either so, or fraudulent.

None the less it is bizarre that they would do a bottling like this...
Knock off frauds don't usually carry that high a price tag, either.

There is not much '03 Bordeaux on the market yet, even on the low end,
that I've seen anyway.
