2023 Chateau Cheval Blanc – Precision and Balance from Saint Emilion

The 2023 Chateau Cheval Blanc highlights the estate’s distinctive approach to Saint Emilion, where finesse and structure take precedence over sheer power. Situated on a mosaic of gravel and clay soils, Cheval Blanc is celebrated for crafting wines of aromatic complexity, layered texture, and exceptional longevity. The 2023 release continues this legacy with remarkable clarity and composure.

Tasting Notes

The nose is refined and expressive, offering red cherry, blackberry, violet, and subtle herbal notes. On the palate, the wine is poised and finely textured, combining supple fruit with mineral tension and polished tannins. Fresh acidity provides lift and precision, guiding the wine through a long, seamless finish that emphasizes balance and restraint.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The blend is driven by Cabernet Franc alongside Merlot, sourced from individually managed parcels that reflect the estate’s diverse terroirs. Vinification is carried out with meticulous attention to extraction, followed by aging in French oak barrels selected to complement, rather than dominate, the wine’s natural profile. The 2023 growing season favored steady ripening, preserving aromatic purity and structure.

Investment & Collectibility

Chateau Cheval Blanc remains one of the most consistently sought-after wines of the Right Bank. Its combination of limited production, global demand, and strong historical performance supports continued interest from collectors and fine wine investors alike.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

The 2023 Bordeaux vintage emphasized elegance and freshness, producing wines with lower alcohol and precise tannin structure. Early assessments place Cheval Blanc among the standout releases for its harmony and site expression.

Rating (96-98). The Grand Vin 2023 Château Cheval Blanc is based on 52% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon and, as always, is resting in 100% new French oak. It's deep ruby/plum-hued and offers a gorgeous array of ripe black cherries, currants, leafy herbs, spring flowers, and spicy oak. This carries to a medium to full-bodied Cheval with gorgeous mid-palate depth, ripe, building, yet polished tannins, and a certainly salty, mineral character on the finish. This is a classic, regal, aristocratic Cheval Blanc that will need bottle age, but it’s absolutely gorgeous. It's the finest wine I tasted on the Right Bank.

Rating (98-100). One of the most profound wines of the vintage is the 2023 Château Cheval Blanc, a striking wine that stands out for its strong sense of identity and seamless integration at such an early stage in its life. Wafting from the glass with notes of mulberries, lilac, dark fruits, iris root and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with a gourmand core of cool, vibrant fruit that entirely conceals its sweet structuring tannins, concluding with a long, perfumed finish. It's a blend of 52% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, drawing on fully 46 of the blocks that make up Cheval Blanc, and it attained 13.8% alcohol.

Rating (95-98). The 2023 Cheval Blanc is silky, elegant and exceptionally polished. Cabernet Franc is rarely as expressive as it is here. Everything in the 2023 is about detail. All the elements are so well balanced—so integrated. Red/purplish berry fruit, mint, cinnamon, rose petal and blood orange meld together, while seamless tannins wrap it all up in grand style. What a wine. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, issue date: April 2024. Drinking window: 2033 - 2063.
