Description

"This absorbed a lot of the Merlot. 75% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc. Sweet and spicy on the nose. Lovely texture and a sweet start. Very charming start, then quite tough and drying tannins on the finish. Slightly hot finish. Great freshness. Apparently, the analysis is exactly the same as for Cheval Blanc – most unusual. 17 Points, Jancis Robinson MW."

Chateau Cheval Blanc

For six centuries, winegrowers have succeeded one another on the land of Cheval Blanc, which itself is part of a 2,000-year-old vine civilization. The current configuration of the estate dates back to the middle of the 19th century. In more than 150 years, the reins of Cheval Blanc have changed hands only once, allowing the Château to inscribe its technical management in permanence, and to safeguard the integrity of its plant capital.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux, one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, is located in southwestern France and is celebrated for its exceptional wines. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. It is particularly renowned for its red wines, primarily blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, offering rich, complex flavours and excellent ageing potential. Notable sub-regions include Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Bordeaux also produces exquisite white wines, both dry, from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and sweet, from the Sauternes and Barsac areas. The region's unique terroir, combined with centuries-old winemaking traditions, results in wines of unparalleled quality and distinction. Bordeaux remains a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking world-class wines and a rich viticultural heritage.
