Cheval Blanc’s origins trace back to 1832, when a portion of the vineyards from Château Figeac was sold to M. Laussac-Fourcaud, laying the foundation for what would become one of the most esteemed estates in Bordeaux. As one of only two estates in Saint-Émilion classified as Premier Grand Cru Classé (A), Cheval Blanc is widely regarded as a benchmark of exceptional winemaking.

The 1982 vintage is truly legendary, marked by a perfect balance of power and elegance. This wine reveals an intricate bouquet of ripe black fruit, tobacco, and cigar box, with nuanced notes of leather, earth, and spices. The tannins are silky yet present, supporting a long, complex finish. Approaching its peak, this vintage is in an ideal drinking window, offering a profound expression of Cheval Blanc`s unparalleled finesse and longevity.

Chateau Cheval Blanc

The Star of Saint-Émilion

With a history dating back as least as far as the 16th century, Château Cheval Blanc is considered by many to be one of the finest estates in Bordeaux. Located on the Right Bank in the celebrated Saint-Émilion appellation. One of only four wines to be ranked Premier Grand Cru Classé A in the classification of Saint-Émilion wine, the estate has three main soil types: clay, gravel and sand. Red grape plantings are made up of 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot and are used to produce wines with marvellous aromatics, with floral and smoky nuances, aged 100% in new oak.

In addition to the highly-coveted first wine, the estate produces a second red wine, Le Petit Cheval which made its first appearance in the 1988 vintage. A white wine, known as Le Petit Cheval Blanc, is also made, produced from predominantly Sauvignon Blanc together with a smaller percentage of Sémillon.
