Only 4,5 and 5,0 NJP-wines (Nenad Jelisic Points) are presented as the best vintages.
If for some wine behind “the best vintages” stands “none”, it means that none of the wine's vintages got 4,5 NJP or 5,0 NJP.
Château Cheval Blanc, a French wine that comes from Château Cheval Blanc. As a rule the wine is composed of about 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot. Average age of the vines is 40 years (in 2008) and the yield is 35-40 hl/ha. After that the grapes have been carefully sorted in the field and in the cellar, they are very gently destemmed and crushed. The crushed mass, which consists of juice, pulp, skins and seeds, is pumped to both the vats of concrete and the vats of stainless steel where fermentation begins. The fermentation takes place under controlled temperature of 30 to 32 degrees Celsius and lasts for a period from 15 to 25 days. In order to intensify leaching, the fermenting wine is pumped from the bottom of the vat over the skin mass four times per day. After the fermentation, the fermented wine is macerated 20 to 22 days and then moved to 100% new French oak barriques where it undergoes malolactic fermentation. Once the malolactic fermentation, which usually takes a few weeks, is finished, the wine is left to remain until February following the harvest. In February, it is, by help of extensive tastings that have occurred during the manufacturing process, determined what wines (Cabernet Franc and Merlot) and what specific parts of the vineyard (the age of the vines and the geographic location of the vines) will be mixed with each other. During the aging, which usually takes about 18 months, the wine is moved from one barrel to another every third month and clarified by using 3 pieces of egg whites one time. After the aging, the wines are bottled. The wine does not undergo filtration. On average, 70,000 bottles (+40,000 bottles of Le Petit Cheval, château’s second wine) are produced. Château Cheval Blanc has a great aging potential from 10 to almost 40 years. (2011-10)
