Château Cheval Blanc & Terrazas de los Andes
Red 2019
Our committee's review
Founded in 1999, Terrazas de Los Andes seamlessly combines French expertise with Argentina’s exceptional terroirs. Nestled on the steep slopes of the Andes in Mendoza, the vineyard stretches between 980 and 1,800 meters above sea level, offering breathtaking landscapes. Renowned worldwide for the intensity and character of its wines, the estate has earned enduring acclaim, securing its position among the most sought-after wineries in the world.
The Cheval des Andes cuvée is the result of a partnership between the legendary Château Cheval Blanc and the Argentine bodega, sourced from 50 hectares of secluded vines within the Andean estate. This wine captures the essence of the bodega, skillfully balancing South American power with the finesse of Bordeaux elegance. As such, it holds a unique and distinguished place on the global stage.
Rated 98/100 Parker, the 2019 Red Mendoza Cheval des Andes scores another success. Returning to a blend similar to the origins of the wine's creation, equal parts Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon, this vintage was piloted by a Frenchman, Gérald Gabillet, who was newly appointed cellar master. With a revised maturation with more barrels from the Stockinger cooperage, for some added finesse, the wine shows great balance, and is ripe to perfection. Still shy at this young stage, it already has all the elements of a certain aging potential; tannic richness, structure and length make an exciting version of this star wine!
An outstanding wine, at the top of the world hierarchy, rated 98/100 by Parker.
