Located in Luján de Cuyo, in the heart of the Mendoza wine region, Cheval des Andes was born from the union of the Bordeaux expertise of Château Cheval Blanc and the high-altitude terroir of Argentina. This unique estate embodies an ambitious project: to create the " Grand Cru of the Andes " by combining French elegance with Andean power. Cultivated at over 1,000 meters above sea level, the vineyard benefits from a dry continental climate, perfect for the slow ripening of the grapes. The estate's identity rests on the finesse of its tannins, the aromatic complexity, and the remarkable aging potential of its wines.
