The collaboration between Cheval Blanc from Saint-Emilion and Terrazas from Mendoza has an extra unexpected French touch. The founder and owner of Terrazas is the prestigious Champagne house Moët & Chandon. The style of Cheval des Andes is unique, with all elements inspired by Cheval Blanc. Cheval des Andes wine combines the lively and intense expression of Argentine Malbec with the rigor, elegance and savoir-faire of a great Bordeaux. The vision of Cheval des Andes is to bring the winemaking philosophy of Château Cheval Blanc - which focuses on wine storage capabilities and elegance - to Argentina. Cheval des Andes makes wines that age gracefully and "travel through the decades," said Pierre Lurton, president of Château Cheval Blanc and Cheval des Andes.
