LE PETIT CHEVAL Second wine of Chateau Cheval Blanc, St-Emilion

Considered a 'super second' amongst prestigious 2nd Growth Bordeaux. Set on deep, gravelly soils next to the prized Chateau Latour, Chateau Pichon-Longueville-Baron finds this season giving oplence and power of tannins, with classic vanilla and floral touches, with oak a decidedly reserved feature. The modern winery has produced a style worthy of international acclaim, and pushes fruit depth to an often unnatainable extreme. A prodigiously impressive release, defined by house style.

Deep and rich, this is a classic expression of hillside Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, offering alluring aromas of boysenberry, black currant, and dark chocolate, as well as subtle layers of sweet oak, savory herbs, and fresh-roasted coffee. On the palate, ripe fruit and plush, radiant tannins create a velvety mouthfeel and an almost liqueur-like richness that carries through to a long, lingering finish.

Classic cherries, red and black with a maraschino edge. Spicy, with a pepper and cinnamon edge. Whiffs of cigar and forest floor hint at greatness to come.
