Dark, pure fruit runs straight through the 2023 Chateau Cheval Blanc Le Petit Cheval, with black cherry, cassis and a touch of pomegranate lifted by citrusy brightness and gentle spice, while hints of herbs and flowers add detail. The palate feels taut and finely carved rather than plush, framed by sleek, persistent tannins and a long, energetic finish that promises real reward once it relaxes in bottle.

Le Petit Cheval is the prestigious second red wine of Château Cheval Blanc in Saint‑Émilion, crafted from the same iconic terroir and grape varieties but from lots that don’t make it into the grand vin. First produced in 1988, it typically blends Merlot and Cabernet Franc to give a supple, elegant Bordeaux with the estate’s signature finesse and minerality, but in a more approachable, earlier‑drinking style that serves as a refined introduction to Cheval Blanc.
