About Ch. Cheval Blanc
This prestigious estate in the Bordeaux region dates back to the 18th century. Its long history is evidenced by its appearance on a regional map dating from 1764. In the 19th century, the estate became the property of the Fourcaud-Laussac family, who owned it for nearly two centuries. In 1998, it was acquired by Bernard Arnault and Baron Albert Frère.
Thanks to its exceptional terroir and the predominance of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the estate produces wines of remarkable character and unmistakable identity. It also boasts more vintages recognised as exceptional than any other classified estate over the past century.
One of the most remarkable qualities of these wines is their outstanding ageing potential. Once they reach their optimum maturity, they retain their complexity, elegance and harmony for many years.
