Château Cheval Blanc 2022 once again confirms its legendary status among the world’s greatest wines. Classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé A, this iconic Saint-Émilion estate benefits from a unique mosaic of gravel, clay and sand soils, located on the border with Pomerol. The concentrated yet perfectly controlled 2022 vintage delivers a wine of extraordinary depth, combining intensity, freshness and absolute elegance.
Appearance: deep, luminous garnet with violet highlights.
Nose: remarkably complex, revealing pure black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry), delicate floral notes (violet, iris), graphite, fine spices and beautifully integrated noble oak.
Palate: majestic and finely etched. The texture is dense yet incredibly refined, supported by ultra-silky tannins. The balance between richness, freshness and tension is masterful, leading to an endlessly long, precise and refined finish.
The vineyards of Château Cheval Blanc lie on a unique patchwork of gravel, clay and sand soils, offering an unparalleled expression of its grape varieties. The 2022 blend is dominated by Cabernet Franc, complemented by Merlot, providing structure, aromatic freshness, verticality and outstanding aging potential.
Hand-harvested grapes with meticulous sorting. Parcel-by-parcel vinification in temperature-controlled vats with gentle, precise extractions to preserve each terroir’s identity. Long aging in French oak barrels, with a carefully managed proportion of new oak, seamlessly integrated.
Ideal with noble roasted or braised meats, beef fillet, lamb, game birds or refined gastronomic dishes. Serve at 60–64 °F (16–18 °C). Decant for 2–3 hours when young.
Château Cheval Blanc 2022 is a mythical wine of extraordinary precision and longevity. While already breathtaking with aeration, it will reach its full expression after extended cellaring and can evolve gracefully over 10–20 years, or even longer under optimal conditions.
