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
Château Cheval Blanc 1982 price
The 1982 Château Cheval Blanc is a legendary Saint-Émilion wine, widely considered a modern benchmark of excellence and one of the finest vintages of the 20th century.
Initially, it has an expressive nose featuring sweet raspberries, black truffles, cedar box, and menthol, with tertiary notes of leather, cigar box, and forest floor.
Then the palate is medium to full-bodied, with a satiny, seamless texture.
Overall, it displays opulence yet balance, often showing vibrant acidity and melting tannins.
finally, the finish is very long and persistent, with a mocha or roasted coffee aftertaste.
