Le Petit Cheval 2021 - Bordeaux white
Bordeaux - White Bordeaux - 2nd Wine - White Wine -Le Petit Cheval 2021 - White Bordeaux
Appellation : Bordeaux White
Classification : White wine of Château Cheval Blanc
Offered only in OWC of 3 bottles.
For more than 10 years, Château Cheval Blanc has challenged itself to produce a great white wine on this small 6.6 hectare vineyard nested in the parcels of the 1er Grand Cru Classé. A true variation in white of the identity of Cheval Blanc, this wine is a blend of some 13 different plots, on sandy and clayey soils, where 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon flourish perfectly.
Tasting note:
The color is clear, limpid, brilliant, a beautiful yellow-green. The first nose is discreet, dominated by citrus fruits (lemon, grapefruit). When aired, the floral notes take over (lime blossom, lilac, white flowers). The arrival of Semillon in the blend opens a new aromatic register, made of white-fleshed fruits (peach, pear), and a delicate note of acacia honey and beeswax.
The remarkably understated woodiness brings a mineral and smoky touch. The fresh and precise attack continues in the mid-palate with impressive amplitude and volume. The balance between fat and acidity brings great depth to the palate, and the interminable finish is slightly enhanced by a pretty salivating bitterness.
