Description

Le Petit Cheval 2001 

St. Emilion, Grand Cru

Good levels, excellent appearance, 1 label slightly marked; Bons niveaux, excellente apparence, 1 étiquette légèrement marquée

85% Cabernet Franc. A lovely violets and wet earth nose, very scented and perfumed. A strong, fruity/rosy taste, with notes of coffee and cinnamon. Great fresh character. So sprightly and youthful. Last tasted from magnum in 2011. Lovely blackcurrant tastes. Glossy and so vivacious. Really impressive. Will last longer than Petit Cheval 2000. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
