Château Cheval Blanc Property:
In 2008, Alain Raynaud sold Château Quinault L'Enclos to the owners of Château Cheval Blanc, Bernard Arnault and Albert Frère. Today, Pierre Lurton and his talented team at Cheval Blanc manage Château Quinault L'Enclos. After the purchase, the estate switched to organic farming in 2009.
In 2012, they obtained their certification to be completely organic in their growing methods. Starting with the 2014 vintage, Château Quinault L'Enclos began including Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend for the first time.
