白馬堡位在St-Emilion區，但與Pomerol區的L’Evangile和La Conseillante堡僅有一條小路之隔，所釀之酒較有Pomerol區的風格，與本區的Ausone歐頌堡並列為聖艾美濃區的二寶。白馬堡有別於一般以Cabernet Sauvignon卡本內．蘇維翁品種為主的波爾多名廠，她反而是選擇了配角Cabernet Franc卡本內．弗蘭擔任調配的主原料，至今尚未有一家酒廠有這樣的創舉。奇妙的是這個原本色淺、早熟、單寧薄的Cabernet Franc卻在白馬堡發揮它最大的本事，讓一款又可年輕時享用，經過十年的陳年，酒體未老反而更集中，更有多層次的香氣與口感。礦物、異國香料、煙草香以及超熟的黑水果香是白馬堡的特色，她的與眾不同，就是最大的特色。

It is many years since I last tasted the 1994 Château Cheval Blanc. Here it has an intriguing nose with expressive Cabernet Franc aromas that develop more floral, wilted petal tones with aeration. There are touches of desiccated red cherry and bacon fat. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely structured, quite savory in the mouth and showing some austerity towards the harmonious finish. It is a little curmudgeonly perhaps and I would consume bottles in the next 5-8 years, as it is not going to go anywhere.
