Le Petit Cheval 2009 pascal-cotat 61% Cabernet Sauvignon

61% Cabernet Sauvignon

aldehyde and a brassy textural weight (the looming pasada character) are six fibres lightly spliced together

showing notes tile on the edge of the cup

exotic spices and charry oak influences enliven the senses

but also function like ice cubes after a very cold night

Le Petit Cheval 2009 pascal-cotat 61% Cabernet Sauvignon"Chteau Cheval Blanc, which is translated into 'white horse', has a long, colorful history in St. Emilion that is traced all the way back to 1832. That was the year the Ducasse family purchased land from the much larger estate of Chteau Figeac. Prior to its rebirth as Cheval Blanc, the vineyard was better known as Le Barrail de Cailloux, which is loosely translated into 'the barrel of tiny stones'.
