Description

Cheval Noir Sauvignon Blanc 2024: an elegant and refreshing white Bordeaux

The Cheval Noir Sauvignon Blanc 2024 perfectly exemplifies Bordeaux’s expertise in crafting dry white wines. Produced exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc, this vintage showcases all the freshness and finesse of this iconic grape variety. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve their aromatic richness and natural vibrancy. Vinification at low temperatures helps to retain the full intensity of the fruity and floral aromas, whilst ageing on fine lees lends a more generous texture and a lovely length on the palate.

The pale yellow colour with green highlights heralds a wine bursting with youthfulness. The nose opens with notes of lemon, grapefruit, kiwi, exotic fruits and elderflower. With aeration, nuances of boxwood, blackcurrant bud and a slight mineral touch emerge. On the palate, the attack is lively and refreshing. The citrus and white fruit flavours are balanced by a lovely roundness, whilst the finish reveals a pleasant, lingering freshness accompanied by a delicate minerality.

Served between 8 and 10 °C, this dry white Bordeaux is the ideal accompaniment to oysters, prawns, grilled fish, sushi, mixed salads, asparagus or goat’s cheese. Ready to drink now, it will be at its freshest within three to five years of the vintage.
