Winemaking:
Cheval Blanc 2020 is the product of meticulous vineyard management and precision winemaking. Harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, each plot is vinified separately to express the unique identity of the estate’s complex terroir. The wine is aged for approximately 18 to 20 months in 100% new French oak barrels, allowing for the perfect integration of fruit, structure, and oak. This vintage showcases the elegance of Cabernet Franc and the richness of Merlot, resulting in a layered, aromatic, and age-worthy wine with outstanding depth and silky tannins.
Food Pairing
Cheval Blanc 2020 pairs beautifully with refined, flavourful dishes that match its elegance and complexity. Ideal accompaniments include roast rack of lamb with herb crust, beef Wellington, or duck breast with cherry reduction. For a luxurious pairing, try it with black truffle risotto or aged Comté cheese. These dishes highlight the wine’s depth, silky tannins, and aromatic finesse.
