Since it won its first medal in 1862, Château Cheval Blanc has maintained its place as one of the world’s greatest wines.
In 1832, Château Figeac sold 15 hectares (37 acres) to M. Laussac-Fourcaud.
As a result, this became Chateau Cheval Blanc.
Notably, in the International London and Paris Exhibitions in 1862 and 1867, it won medals still prominent on its labels.
Furthermore, the family kept the château until 1998, when Bernard Arnault and Albert Frère bought it.
The late Clive Coates MW described Chateau Cheval Blanc as “the only great wine in the world made predominantly from Cabernet Franc.”
The vineyard area spans 41 hectares (100 acres), with 37 hectares (91 acres) planted with a composition of grape varieties of:
- 57% Cabernet Franc
- 40% Merlot
- and small parcels of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon
2002 wine for sale – Château Cheval Blanc 2002
The 2002 Château Cheval Blanc is an elegant, medium-bodied vintage that emerged from a cooler, more challenging growing season in Saint-Émilion.
While not as powerful or legendary as the 1998 or 2000 vintages, it has a refined balance.
Expect a dark ruby hue with a complex bouquet of black cherry, cassis, and cocoa, often accompanied by secondary notes of mint, graphite, truffle, and tobacco.
It has silky tannins and cool climate style, offering more freshness and acidity than richer, riper years.
