2011 Le Petit Cheval, St. Emilion

Le Petit Cheval, St. Emilion
The 2011 Le Petit Cheval, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru is made from 75% Merlot as in 2010. Delicate berry fragrance. Acidity is underlined and a firm structure and finish.

Le Petit Cheval, St. Emilion
The 2011 Le Petit Cheval (75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc) is very Pomerol-like (not surprising since this vineyard sits on the Pomerol/St.-Emilion border). Abundant notes of berries, leafy underbrush, currants, plums and a hint of Asian spices are found in this attractive, fruit-forward effort. Enjoy it over the next decade.

Le Petit Cheval, St. Emilion
Offers a plush, supple, nicely rounded feel, offering notes of creamy plum and cherry preserves, with perfumy spice gliding in on the finish. Still youthfully primal, but there are no angles or austerity here, just pure fruit.
