Looks quite evolved at the rim. Interesting, well-balanced, biscuity nose. Good freshness, and very much more than a hint of terroir here. Bravo! This is recognisably St-Émilion rather than being an attempt at modern red wine. Appetising and while dry on the end, it's not horribly drying! Really good stuff. Drink 2015-2030

One of the stronger second wines I have tasted from manager/winemaker, Pierre Lurton, the 2006 Le Petit Cheval exhibits a dark ruby hue along with sweet red and black fruit notes intermixed with underbrush, forest floor, and licorice characteristics. This is a seductive second wine that cascades over the palate with no hard edges. Enjoy it over the next 6-7 years.

Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, jugendliche Reflexe, violetter Rand. In der Nase feine rote Beerenfrucht, einladendes Bukett, zarte Holzwürze, Kirschanklänge, attraktiver Duft. Am Gaumen saftig, elegante Textur, feine Extraktsüße, bereits harmonisch, sehr vielseitiger Speisenbegleiter, hat einiges Reifepotenzial.

Tasted at Cheval Blanc. A very taught, Morello, redcurrant nose with good minerality. The palate has excellent delineation, cohesive and pure with a very Merlot dominated mid-palate. A touch of burnt toasty on the linear finish. Moderate length.

Deep crimson. Pretty ripe and round with no hint of green on the nose, a little inky and weedy and severe but only at the very end. Slightly dry tannins. Only just fruity enough – a little scrawny. Definitely lightweight. Fresh greenness. Fades a bit on the finish. 16+

The second wine of Château Cheval Blanc, this layers acidity and some dense tannins, against juicy fruit flavors. The aftertaste is dry, and just bitter. —R.V.

Refined and silky, with attractive tobacco and coffee character and a hint of berry. Medium-bodied, this is a tiny bit bitter on the finish, but really good.
