The estate

Known worldwide, Château Cheval Blanc, is part of the legendary properties of the wines from the right bank of the Bordeaux region. The second wine of the estate, Petit Cheval, offers a superb introduction to the excellence of the grand wine Cheval Blanc, with refined, powerful wines, on a palate with striking and gourmet fruit. With a new cellar designed by Christian de Portzamparc and inaugurated in June 2011, Château Cheval Blanc continues to write the legend of the greatest wines of Bordeaux.

The vineyard

Château Cheval Blanc benefits from a unique and rare terroir composed of 39 hectares, of which 33.3 hectares are in production, enjoying a particular position on the plateau of Saint-Émilion. While the Saint-Émilion appellation is known for its limestone formations, Château Cheval Blanc is located on the Quaternary alluvium of the Isle, a non-limestone formation with a varied texture, combining gravel and clay soils in roughly equal proportions. This particularity of the soils means that this estate benefits from soils similar to those of the greatest wines of Pomerol.

The vintage

The beginning of the year is marked by a period of great freshness which does not impact the buds that appeared at the end of March for the Merlots and the beginning of April for the Cabernet Francs. The flowering took place at the end of May under good conditions, suggesting satisfactory yields. The vineyard was spared from mildew pressure and excessive water stress, particularly during the two heat peaks at the end of August, thus ensuring high-quality harvests carried out from September 6 to October 3 under very good conditions.

Vinification and ageing

Vinification of the 54 plots in 54 different vats.
