A refined, complex bouquet of ripe red fruit with a touch of toast and spice. Rich and powerful with good structure, a fine balance between fruit and tannin, as well as great length.

A blend of wines from selected partner winegrowers, Cheval Noir Bordeaux Rouge reflects the expertise of our oenologists. A major effort has been undertaken in Bordeaux by our technical team to identify those terroirs most propitious to ripening Merlot and Cabernet, the varieties in Cheval Noir Bordeaux Rouge. The grapes grow on slope vineyards.

Grape varieties consist of 85% Merlot (contributing fruitiness and roundness), 10% Cabernet Sauvignon (providing structure), and 5% Cabernet Franc (adding aromatic finesse). The wine’s potential is due to clay-limestone terroir.

Alcoholic fermentation at 27°C in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 8-10 days is followed by post-fermentation maceration. Pumping over with oxygenation takes place during fermentation and in an oxygen-free environment during maceration. How often and to what extent this is done is based on daily tasting by our oenologists. The wine is aged in vat to lock in maximum fruitiness.

Food Pairing: Thanks to the wine’s freshness, fruitiness, and roundness, it can be enjoyed quite young. Its balance and red fruit aromas go beautifully with prepared dishes, poultry, and white meats.
