The nose is elegant and temperate, with yellow-fleshed fruit, citrus, zest and beeswax notes. Airing the wine, brioche, butter and pastry notes also emerge. Flowers are also prevalent, white flowers and lime blossom. The very fresh nose is also characterised by the generosity of this sunny vintage. The palate is round and supple. The acidity, less pronounced in this vintage, combines with a bitterness that stretches and lengthens the wine. The wood, though very discreet, adds volume and complexity to the texture on the palate.
Produced under the Bordeaux Blanc Sec appellation, Le Petit Cheval is the result of an adventure and a challenge undertaken by Château Cheval Blanc over 10 years ago: to produce a truly exceptional white wine in a terroir historically renowned for its red wines. Although the initial idea was to produce a wine intended exclusively for family and friends, the ambition to create a truly exceptional wine soon became clear. Embodying the very essence of Cheval Blanc, Le Petit Cheval Blanc benefits from a vineyard entirely dedicated to it. This 6.6-hectare vineyard was part of the Tour du Pin estate. Benefiting from its own winemaking and ageing facilities, Le Petit Cheval Blanc is therefore a blend of 13 different plots, combining vines planted in sandy and clay soils.
