History and anecdotes
The Cheval Blanc estate was established in 1832 by Jean-Jacques Ducasse following the acquisition of vineyard land formerly attached to Château Figeac. Recognizing an exceptional terroir, the owners chose a unique grape composition, consisting of half Merlot and half Cabernet Franc. The wine was first awarded a gold medal at the 1878 Paris World Fair.
In 1954, Cheval Blanc was classified as Premier Grand Cru Classé A in the Saint-Émilion classification.
In 1998, Bernard Arnault and Baron Albert Frère became owners of the prestigious château, breathing new life into it. Pierre Lurton then became the President and CEO of Cheval Blanc.
