Château Cheval Blanc
Château Cheval Blanc, a 1er Grand Cru Classé (A) is unquestionably the leading estate in St. Emilion. It is located in the north-west of the St. Emilion appellation, bordering Pomerol.
Cheval Blanc's vineyards (Merlot 39%, Cabernet Franc 57%, Malbec 3%, Cabernet Sauvignon 1%) enjoy a variety of soils: gravel, clay and sand, all underpinned by an impermeable sedimentary rock (`crasse de fer'). Fermentation and maceration last 4 weeks in stainless steel vats, followed by 18 months' maturation in new oak barrels.
Cheval Blanc produces the most famous Cabernet Franc-based wine in the world and present régisseur Pierre Lurton is amongst the most talented winemakers working in Bordeaux today. Cheval Blanc requires a minimum 10 years of bottle age and the best vintages can last for 50 years or more.

Excellent colour. Very, very lively. Not the most fragrant vintage of Cheval, but lovely texture. Very, very well balanced. Sumptuous texture and layers of dense flavour, but a chunky end. Quite chunky rather than mind-blowing. Inky tannins at the end. (Jancis Robinson - ... MORE |

Cabernet Franc ripened beautifully at Ch. Cheval Blanc in 2008 and, comprising 50% of the blend this year, its heady perfume and full blown tannins make for a particularly decadent Grand Vin. Merlot (the other 50%) adds a lush richness to the massive weight of fruit on the palate, but ... MORE |

"...Stylistically, this wine is probably cut from the same mold as
vintages such as 1985, 1966, and 1962. The color is a dense ruby with purple
nuances. Once past the blockbuster bouquet of menthol, leather, black fruits,
licorice, and mocha, the wine reveals medium body, ...

Director Pierre Lurton has produced an extraordinary Cheval Blanc in 2005 with wonderful purity and class, emphasizing beauty over power. Like so many of the great 2005s this starts slowly and then snowballs into an avalanche of flavour, getting more and more complex and intense as it goes. ... MORE |

A well evolved, elegant example of Cheval Blanc. Surprisingly forward, sweet, complex fruit and a long, velvety finish. This wine will continue to gain in weight and complexity over the ensuing decade. |
