A wonderful and rather exotic white with aromas of pears, lychees, lemons and some green apples that follow through to the palate and show layers of dreamy texture and a long, flavorful finish. The texture is more like a red that a white. Fermented and aged in slightly larger oak barrels. This is a special wine and the best release so far. Very intense. 74% sauvignon blanc and 26% semillon. One for the cellar.
95 Robert Parker
Cheval Blanc's relatively new white wine, the 2018 Le Petit Cheval Blanc, is a blend of 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Sémillon. This is the first vintage that the Sémillon plantings have come online to make the blend. Profound notions of ripe pineapple, passion fruit and white peaches explode from the glass, followed by fragrant notes of lemongrass, lime blossoms and yuzu zest with a waft of sea spray. The palate is full-bodied with an alluring oiliness to the texture and layer upon layer of tropical fruits, citrus peel and minerals, marked by a refreshing line and finishing with loads of mineral sparks. Put aside all your preconceptions of "Bordeaux Blanc" and don't even try to compare it to Pessac-Leognan. This has its own gorgeous expression of these grapes, defying regional tradition. Give yourself over to the rich decadence of this flamboyant white that is at once without peers, but is also quintessentially Cheval Blanc.

Château Cheval Blanc
Annata dopo annata, producendo vini fenomenali, alcuni dei quali sono i più celebri del mondo, il leggendario Château Cheval Blanc è sulla cresta dell'onda. Bernault Arnault e Albert Frère acquistarono la proprietà alla fine degli anni '90 e, senza badare a spese, i due soci puntarono a rendere Cheval Blanc il più grande Château sulla Sponda Destra di Bordeaux. Classificato come proprietà Grand Cru Classé A, Cheval Blanc possiede senza dubbio il maggior numero di vigne di Cabernet Franc di Bordeaux. Al confine della denominazione Pomerol, con oltre la metà dei 39 ettari di terreno impiantati a Cabernet Franc, la tenuta è composta da quarantacinque lotti separati e sparsi in tutta la regione. Questi appezzamenti così frammentati e l'alta percentuale di Cabernet Franc determinano la grande complessità del vino. Un Cheval Blanc in stile classico può essere descritto dagli aromi di frutti neri e spezie ricchi, concentrati e intensamente complessi. Almeno dieci anni d’invecchiamento sveleranno al meglio la struttura serica del Grand Vin, lo Cheval Blanc. Un vino senza rivali.
