More about the wine

One of the original icons of Luján, the core of this blend comes from Cheval’s century-old vines in Las Compuertas blended with grapes from La Consulta in the Uco Valley. It is unashamedly complex and brooding, with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot adding spice and cedar to this age-worthy Malbec blend.

 

More about Cheval des Andes winery

Bordeaux’s Premier Grand Cru Château Cheval Blanc decided to seek their own Grand Cru of Mendoza in this collaboration with Terrazas de los Andes winery. Under the hand of local winemaker Gerald Gabillet and the team at Cheval Blanc, Cheval des Andes makes just one wine from the very best plots of their old-vine Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

The result is an age-worthy and sophisticated red blend which evolves beautifully in the cellar, showing the fine wine potential of Malbec blends.
