Producer Information

Chteau Cheval Blanc is a highly lauded wine estate in the Saint-milion region of northeast Bordeaux. It is certainly the most famous Cabernet Franc-based wine in the world, albeit often alongside very similar levels of Merlot. Typically, the “grand vin” (the estate’s eponymous wine) is lush and full bodied with great weight of fruit. It tends to require ten years of bottle age and the best vintages can last half a century or more. The second wine of the estate is Le Petit Cheval. Given the top accolade of Premier Grand Cru Class A at the inception of the Saint-Emilion classification in 1955, Cheval blanc famously withdrew from the ranking system in 2022. Nonetheless, it is still regarded by many as one of the greatest if not, the greatest wines of the appellation (and in wider Bordeaux).
