Description
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 produces the most famous Cabernet Franc-based wine in the world and present winemaker Pierre Lurton is amongst the most talented winemakers working in Bordeaux today. One of four Saint-Émilion wineries to enjoy the status of Premier Grand Cru Classé "A", alongside Château Angélus, Château Ausone and Château Pavie; Château Cheval Blanc produces the world’s greatest Cabernet Franc-based wine and is a reference point for the best that can be achieved with the grape. Château Cheval Blanc's history can be traced back to the 1830s when the Ducasse family purchased a patch of land and vines from Château Figeac. This land, combined with a number of parcels bought from other wineries, eventually became the Cheval Blanc estate that we know today. The historic Château was built in the late 1800s and is now recognised as one of the most beautiful and classic examples of Bordeaux wine architecture. In 2011, famous architect Christian de Portzamparc led the renovation of the estate’s facilities, including a state-of-the-art winery, barrel cellars, vinification room and tasting area, making Cheval Blanc the envy of all other Bordeaux estates.
