Cheval des Andes 2021 is a meticulous blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon from Altamira, 48% Malbec from Altamira and Las Compuertas, and 3% Petit Verdot sourced from Las Compuertas. The 2021 vintage experienced conditions reminiscent of Bordeaux, yielding a wine with restrained fruit expression. On the palate, aromas of raspberry and plum are complemented by herbal undertones and subtle earthiness. The structure is defined by firm tannins, offering a balance between freshness and depth. This vintage embodies the careful craftsmanship of Cheval des Andes, a joint venture between Château Cheval Blanc and Terrazas de los Andes.
A blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon from Altamira, 48% Malbec from Altamira and Las Compuertas and 3% Petit Verdot from Las Compuertas, the 2021 Cheval des Andes showcases a blend in peak form, both in terms of varieties and origins, all from Mendoza. In many ways, 2021 was a Bordeaux-like year for a region as dry and sunny as Mendoza. The wine reflects this, offering delicate cherry and blackberry fruit along with a touch of wild herbs, layered with hints of ash and orange petit-fours. Dry, with fine-grained, lightly reactive tannins, the palate is juicy and enveloping. Though leaner than in previous years, it remains equally refined. Long and nuanced, this is such an elegant wine.
