Our land is rooted in six centuries of history.

For six centuries, winemakers have been working the land at Cheval Blanc; land which was planted with vines over 2,000 years ago. The current configuration of the domain dates back to the middle of the 14th century. During the past 150 years, the reins at Cheval Blanc have changed hands only once. This has enabled long term stability in terms of technical management and has safeguarded the integrity of its vineyards.

Château Cheval Blanc: A unique heritage, unconventional grape varieties.

Clay, gravel and sand: three important types of soil cohabit the 56 plots of Cheval Blanc. Added to this natural richness are the unconventional grape varieties, not usually found on the Right Bank. Château Cheval Blanc’s vineyards are mainly planted with Cabernet Franc as well as some Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

A work of art at the service of wine.

Designed by Christian de Portzamparc and inaugurated in June 2011, Cheval Blanc’s winery rises like a ground swell accentuated by two waves of white concrete. A wild herb garden populates this artificial slope with its graceful curves which gently disappear behind the elevation of the château.

A team dedicated to the service of excellence.

For over 200 years, generations of wine growers have worked the land of Cheval Blanc. Workers, farmers, winemakers and cellar masters; each driven by an identical passion for their profession.
