2000 Chateau Cheval Blanc – A Defining Millennium Vintage

The 2000 Chateau Cheval Blanc stands as one of the most celebrated wines of the modern Bordeaux era, capturing the full expression of this historic Saint Emilion estate in a landmark vintage. Renowned for its distinctive vineyard composition and meticulous approach, Cheval Blanc delivered a wine of remarkable depth, balance, and enduring elegance in 2000.

Tasting Notes

The bouquet is complex and expansive, revealing layers of black cherry, plum, graphite, and subtle floral tones. On the palate, the wine is richly textured yet remarkably refined, combining ripe dark fruit with silky tannins and a mineral backbone. Notes of cocoa, spice, and gentle earth emerge with time, carrying through an exceptionally long and harmonious finish.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Unlike most Right Bank estates, Cheval Blanc is defined by a high proportion of Cabernet Franc alongside Merlot, grown on a unique mosaic of gravel and clay soils. The 2000 vintage benefited from ideal ripening conditions, allowing for precise extraction and balanced fermentation. Aging in French oak barrels contributed structure while preserving aromatic clarity and freshness.

Investment & Collectibility

Widely regarded as one of the greatest vintages of Chateau Cheval Blanc, the 2000 has achieved iconic status among collectors. Its combination of rarity, critical acclaim, and proven longevity has established it as a cornerstone wine for long-term fine wine investment.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

The 2000 Bordeaux vintage is synonymous with concentration and balance, producing wines built for extended aging. At Cheval Blanc, these conditions resulted in a wine of extraordinary harmony and persistence.

Closed and backward over the past decade, the 2000 Chateau Cheval Blanc seems to have turned the corner and is drinking spectacularly well today, with the hallmark elegance and complexity of this estate front and center. Sweet red and black fruits, spice box, dried flowers, and forest floor notes all develop with time in the glass, and it has a balanced, resolved style on the palate that’s a joy to drink. The 2000 is blend of 53% Merlot and 47% Cabernet Franc, and while mature, it has another two decades or more of prime drinking ahead of it. Reviewed by Jeb Dunnuck, Issue date: June 2019. Drinking window: 2019 - 2039.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Coming out of a relatively dormant state, this 2000 is a spectacular Cheval Blanc. Of recent vintages, I think only the 2009 can give it a run for its money. A blend of 53% Merlot and 47% Cabernet Franc, the wine has a sweet nose of menthol, melted licorice, boysenberry, blueberry, and cassis. A broad wine with compelling purity, a layered texture, and sweet tannin, with hints of coffee and earth in the background, this is by far the best Cheval Blanc since 1990 and before 2009. It is a legend in the making and can actually be drunk now, as the tannins have nearly melted away. This is a beauty with incredibly complex aromatics. Drink it over the next 25-30 years.

Vinous

A wine of exquisite aromatic depth and grace, the 2000 Cheval Blanc is fully captivating. All the elements fall into place in an effortless, gracious wine. It’s frankly hard to move past the 2000 Cheval, because at this point, I want nothing to compete with it. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, Issue date: October 2017. Drinking window: n/a.
