Le Petit Cheval 2018 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fruity, fresh and offers concentration as well as a small power. It reveals notes of bright wild cassis, small crushed black fruits and small notes of juicy blueberry associated with fine touches of cornflower as well as fine hints of crushed redcurrant and very discreet hints of nutmeg. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine acidulous frame, juiciness, a good definition, tension and precision. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fresh/juicy blackberry, juicy cassis and small notes of blueberry associated with touches of raspberry as well as hints of juicy/crunchy violet plum, liquorice, cassis cream/fig as well as subtle hints of hazelnut, toasted, very fine hints of caramelization and a very discreet hint of cardamom.
