About Château Cheval Blanc
Château Cheval Blanc, located on the “Pomerol side” of St-Émilion, is one of the most renowned wineries in the world. With its unique terroir of well-drained thick clay and gravel, the estate is able to make a Cabernet Franc dominant wine, which is rare in the region. Planted to 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot, the meticulous team at Château Cheval Blanc focuses on every aspect of viticulture management to winemaking, with a particular emphasis on aromatics. Technical director Pierre-Olivier Clouet, assisted by the knowledgeable Professor Kees van Leeuwen on-site, studies every inch of the vineyard since planting in some cases.
Despite its high classification as one of the four Premier Grand Cru Classé A estates in St-Émilion, Château Cheval Blanc recently departed from the St-Emilion Classification system. Despite the departure, it has not affected the quality and reputation of the estate, which continues to produce some of the world’s greatest wines. Famed for its floral, smoky edges and whisps of perfectly ripened fruit, Château Cheval Blanc is truly one of the world's great wines and a must-try for any wine lover. Indulge in our extensive Cheval Blanc vertical, which includes some of the 100 pointed vintages like 1998, 2000, 2009, 2010 and more...

The Wine Cellar Insider (100)If awards were given out for sensuality, this gem would take the trophy. Incredibly sexy, with its velvet drenched textures, silky tannins and opulent personality, this wine stands out in a crowd. The nose, with its aromatic display of flowers, plums, cherries, espresso, licorice, dark cocoa and oyster shell is compelling. The seamless finish crosses the 60 second mark with its non-stop display of concentrated, perfectly ripe, dark sweet, red fruits, chocolate, licorice and spice. If you can afford it, it is a wine you should have in your cellar and you'll want to age this for at least 15 years before popping a bottle. The wine was made using 54% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.5% ABV. This wine is a legend in the making. |
