The 2008 Le Petit Cheval (65% Cabernet Franc and the rest Merlot) is a light, but not a wimpy wine. It is more cedary and evolved, with spice box, tobacco leaf, licorice, and red and black fruits in a medium-bodied, classic style that should drink nicely for 10-12 years.
Raspberries, flowers and milk chocolate. Medium-bodied, with a core of fine tannins and a mineral, berry aftertaste. Fine and pretty.
