Description

chevron-down

Together with Château Pétrus and Ausone, Château Cheval Blanc is one of the legends of the right bank. Always possesses an enormous concentration, but at the same time finesse and freshness.

The Petit Cheval 2018 represents 10% of the estate's total production and comes from a selection of five plots covering all three of the property's main soil types: sand, gravel and clay – soils which were, incidentally, still fully included in the Grand Vin in 2016.

This wine is characterized by a remarkable harmony and class. The Petit Cheval 2018 has a striking texture, depth and refinement. Juicy black cherry, mocha, roasted herbs, licorice and menthol develop into a voluptuous, lively wine that is immediately delicious to drink. The blend consists of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc.
