Tasting notes

Medium to deep garnet in colour, the 2011 Cheval Blanc features a nose of warm mulberries, preserved plums and figs with suggestions of dried herbs, dusty soil and underbrush plus a touch of Sichuan pepper. Medium to full-bodied, taut and muscular in the mouth, it has a solid frame of chewy tannins supporting the restrained fruit and a long earth and Provence herbs-layered finish.

About the winery

Château Cheval Blanc's history begins in 1832 when the Ducasse family purchased land from Château Figeac. This land eventually became the core of Cheval Blanc. The estate was established as a distinct entity in 1852 and has been known as Cheval Blanc since then.
