Château Cheval Blanc, one of only a handful of estates to hold the Premier Grand Cru Classé A designation in Saint-Émilion, is renowned for producing some of the most graceful and long-lived wines in the world. Situated at the border of Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, the estate benefits from a unique terroir of gravel and clay, ideally suited to its signature blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot. The resulting wines are both powerful and perfumed, structured and supple—distinguished by their aromatic complexity, textural finesse, and remarkable aging capacity. With a lineage of critically acclaimed vintages and a global reputation for excellence, Cheval Blanc continues to be a benchmark for the Right Bank and Bordeaux at large.

Among the remarkable vintages in this collection, five stand out for their exceptional quality and critical acclaim:​

1982 Château Cheval Blanc
The 1982 vintage is a landmark expression of Cheval Blanc’s ability to harmonize power with elegance. Rich, layered, and supremely balanced, it delivers notes of ripe plum, dried herbs, and graphite, with subtle undertones of kirsch and spice emerging over time. The palate is lush yet focused, displaying freshness and textural finesse. Awarded 100 points by Decanter, it remains one of the estate’s greatest achievements of the 20th century.

1990 Château Cheval Blanc
The 1990 Cheval Blanc is seductive and seamless, a wine of great charm and depth that captures the estate’s signature blend at its expressive best. Floral aromatics, ripe cherries, and warm spice unfold into a palate of velvety tannins and striking persistence. A vintage that has only grown in stature with time, earned 100 points from Decanter and is widely regarded as a benchmark Right Bank wine.

1998 Château Cheval Blanc
The 1998 vintage showcases the estate’s mastery of Merlot in a year that particularly favored the Right Bank. A wine of density and grace, it reveals layers of dark berries, violets, truffle, and graphite, supported by a finely-knit structure and remarkable purity. With 100 points from the Wine Advocate, it stands as one of the most complete and age-worthy Cheval Blancs ever produced.

2000 Château Cheval Blanc
In 2000, Cheval Blanc crafted a wine that marries the depth of a great vintage with the polish of modern winemaking. Aromas of cassis, crushed flowers, and tobacco leaf lead to a silky, concentrated palate framed by perfectly ripe tannins and vibrant acidity. Awarded 100 points by Vinous, it is a vintage of both grandeur and elegance.

2005 Château Cheval Blanc
The 2005 Cheval Blanc is monumental in structure yet lifted by striking precision and freshness. Notes of blackberry, espresso, and dark chocolate intertwine with floral and mineral nuances. The finish is long and resonant, with the finesse that defines the château’s greatest wines. Awarded a perfect 100 points by the Wine Advocate, it is a vintage that will continue to evolve beautifully for decades.
