Cheval des Andes

Cheval des Andes is a Bordeaux-style blend from Mendoza, Argentina, crafted in collaboration between Bordeaux's Cheval Blanc and Terrazas de los Andes. 2016 showcases the exceptional quality of Mendoza's terroir.

The wine has velvety tannins that are well-integrated, providing elegance and depth, while a vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance. The finish is long and persistent, with lingering notes of blackberry jam and a touch of spice. This Cheval des Andes 2016 is a sophisticated and powerful wine, perfect for pairing with grilled meats, game dishes, or gourmet cheeses.
