Château Cheval Blanc

Le Cheval Blanc castle sits atop the Saint-Emilion since June 16, 1955 and its ranking Premier Grand Cru Classé A. An anecdote to take the measure of the name? In November 2010, a sale at Sotheby's saw from nearly 230 000 euros a Methuselah of 1947, the most sumptuous. Since 1998, the field is jointly owned by the Belgian Albert Frère and Bernard Arnault French, head of the LVMH group, as director Pierre Lurton, also head of Château d'Yquem. Please!

For an overview of the excellence of the name, let's look at the vineyards of the castle. They cover 39 hectares and require 4 times more people in the cellar, with a plot almost unchanged since 1871, two weather stations to monitor each vintage and a slow replacement of feet at a rate of one hectare every 3 years after the ground rest.

The cellar? Rather than describing what is going on, talking about the new building, designed by renowned architect Christian de Portzamparc, and blends beautifully into the landscape of St. Emilion, vineyard World Heritage of Unesco, while enhancing the elegance of her and her curves.
