Chateau Cheval Blanc 2011 Vintage Overview

2011 OVERVIEW

Silky layers of blackcurrant, plum and blackberry mingle with notes of cocoa, truffle, tobacco leaf and fresh mint in Chateau Cheval Blanc 2011, giving a deeply perfumed yet poised character. The palate is full but refined, with beautifully polished tannins and a long, resonant finish that showcases the vintage’s understated complexity and classically shaped structure. An elegant, often underappreciated Cheval that speaks more of nuance and fragrance than sheer power.

About Chateau Cheval Blanc

Château Cheval Blanc is the iconic grand vin of this famed Saint-Émilion estate on the Pomerol border, a Bordeaux blend unusually dominated by Cabernet Franc alongside Merlot and a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon. Grown on a rare mosaic of gravel and clay that combines right- and left-bank traits, it is celebrated for its seamless balance of power and finesse, with complex aromatics, silky tannins, and exceptional longevity that have long secured its status among the world’s most coveted wines.
